DAMAGE DETECTION FOR UHPFRC COMMUNICATION TOWER BASED ON FREQUENCY DATA AND PARTICLE SWARM OPTIMIZATION

Advances in the telecommunication and broadcasting sectors have increased the need for networking equipment of communication towers. Slender structures, such as towers, are sensitive to dynamic loads, such as vibration forces. Therefore, the stability and reliability performance of towers can be maintained effectively through the prompt detection, localization, and quantification of structural damages by obtaining the dynamic frequency response...
