Deep transfer learning-based damage detection of composite structures by fusing monitoring data with physical mechanism

Published in Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence, 2023

This study proposes a deep transfer learning-based model, called MDAAN, for the damage detection of CFRP composite structures. MDAAN learns the physical mechanism of fatigue damage from the simulation data generated by the finite element model, and can then transfer this knowledge to real-world experimental data to detect and locate the fatigue damage.

Few-shot meta transfer learning-based damage detection of composite structures

Published in Smart Materials and Structures, 2024

To address these challenges of few training data and the scarcity of damage samples, this paper proposes a few-shot meta transfer learning (FMTL)-based approach for damage detection in CFRP composite structures.

Physics-guided deep learning for damage detection in CFRP composite structures

Published in Composite Structures, 2024

This paper proposes a physics-guided deep learning framework to integrate physics into data-driven models. This physics-guided convolutional neural network leverages structural degradation trend and physical consistency by combining the output of the physical model with the observed feature in a hybrid model. This hybrid model uses an additional branch to observe the information of stiffness degradation, which is the input into the physical model to describe the damage growth in structures by establishing a relationship with the power spectral density change in the guided wave signals.
