Abstract : Structural damage detection technique involves the problem of how to locate and detect damage that occurs in a structure by using the observed changes of its dynamic and static characteristics. The objective of this study is to present an analytical method for damage detection by utilizing displacement curvature and all static deflection data to be expanded from the measured deflection data. Utilizing the measured displacements as displacement constraints to describe a damaged beam, minimizing the change of the displacement vector between undamaged and damaged states, and neglecting the variation between the test data and the analytical results, the deflection shape and displacement curvature of the damaged beam can be estimated, and the damage can be detected by the curvature. The validity and effectiveness of the proposed method are illustrated through comparison with the experimental results of a simple cantilever beam test
