About The Book
This volume presents a collection of papers from a research project focused on structural identification and diagnostics, primarily addressing problems in civil engineering. The papers are centered on dynamic identification techniques, with the aim of providing solutions to complex inverse problems that lack a clear framework for practical application.

Key topics covered include:

• Dynamic identification techniques for structural diagnostics.

• Numerical simulation and experimental measurements combined to provide diagnostic insights.

• Crack detection in beams and rods, with rigorously proven results for damage detection.

• A significant paper that addresses the minimal number of frequency measurements required to localize cracks, contributing new solutions to an open research question.

This book is particularly useful for professionals and researchers in civil engineering, focusing on methods for structural health monitoring, damage detection, and the application of inverse problem techniques.

Features:

• In-depth exploration of dynamic identification techniques in civil engineering.

• Practical case studies combining experimental measurements and simulations.

• Focus on crack detection and damage localization in structural components.

• Includes rigorously proven results and solutions to open questions in the field.

This volume serves as an excellent resource for anyone interested in structural diagnostics, especially in the context of civil engineering and damage detection.
