“…There is an alternative method that uses dynamic properties for instance frequencies, mode shapes, damping ratio for damage identification. Simplicity, low cost, sensitivity to damage are the highlights for this approach [1]. Even a small loss in stiffness of structure can cause a change in these modal characteristics.…”

Mode shape-based method has shown its dominance in failure identification of beams. However, it is a challenge for fault detection in a plate structure. It requires combined information in two directions to determine the damage location. In this study, a damage index, namely mode shape derivative based damage identification (MSDBDI), is applied to localize damage in fixed-free plate structures. Two-dimensional (2D) displacement mode shapes and their derivatives are used to identify the MSDBDI index. It is a fact that this indicator is stuck in indicating the damage severity. Hence, a coupled model between an artificial neural network (ANN) and antlion optimizer (ALO), so-called ALOANN is used to overcome this drawback. In this method, ALO instead of a backpropagation algorithm is used to look for the best initial values of learnable parameters of ANN i.e. weights and biases through mean squared error (MSE). These obtained parameters are added to ANN for damage identification. The efficiency of the proposed approach is tested with two numerical studies of the plate structures with single and multiple damage scenarios. In the first application, damage scenarios in a plate-like structure are detected. In the second application, ALO first is used to build a FE model of a composite structure based on a vibration experiment. Then the slab of the updated model is assumed to be suffered several damage scenarios. In both applications, failures are localized by using damage index. Then, the proposed approach is used to quantify the corresponding extent by means of changes in frequencies and displacement mode shapes. Values of damage index are achieved from modal properties of one or three out of the first five modes of the two considered structures. A conventional ANN also is investigated for comparison. Results of damage identification indicate that the damage indicator coupled with ALOANN show better performance compared with using ANN alone even when a noise level is assigned to modal properties.
