S. BATTU, K. AGATHOS and E. PAPATHEOU  \nABSTRACT  \nStructural health monitoring (SHM) involves constantly monitoring the condition of structures to detect any damage or deterioration that might develop over time. Machine learning methods have been successfully used in SHM, however, their effectiveness is often limited by the availability of data for various damage cases. Such data can be especially hard to obtain from high-value structures. In this paper, transfer component analysis (TCA) with domain adaptation is utilised in conjunction with high-fidelity numerical models to generate surrogates for damage identification without the requirement for high volumes of data from various damaged states of the structure. The approach is demonstrated on a laboratory structure, a nonlinear Brake-Reuß beam, where damage scenarios correspond to different torque settings on a lap joint. It is shown that, in a three-class scenario, machine learning algorithms can be trained using numerical data and tested successfully on experimental data.  \nINTRODUCTION  \nEfficient Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) systems can improve the safety, reliability and service life of structures. Additionally, they aid in lowering the cost and time required for maintenance procedures. There are diverse advancements in recent research in SHM, particularly employing machine learning (ML) algorithms. Typically, ML algorithms which are used in SHM can be categorised into supervised, unsupervised and semi-supervised. Supervised ML algorithms require data from all possible damaged states for successful damage identification in SHM. While it is extremely simple to damage and subsequently obtain data from inexpensive structures, damage to high-value structures, is nearly unattainable.  \nIt is a challenging task to solve this problem of data insufficiency. Experimental approaches to use ‘damage proxies’ in the form of added masses have been shown in [1, 2], but they are generally limited to accessible areas of a structure. Another possible solution is to create surrogates with the assistance of high-fidelity physical models.

Here, a novel technique is employed with the integration of high-fidelity physical models and Transfer Component Analysis (TCA) with domain adaptation. TCA with domain adaptation was initially introduced by Pan et al. [3], who provided a unique feature extraction approach as well as an extensive understanding of the theoretical foundationsand mathematical equations of TCA with domain adaptation. Chakraborty et al. [4] demonstrated a transfer learning strategy in SHM employing time-frequency features on a classification problem. In one of the applications of domain adaptation in SHM, Gardner et al. [5] provided a simple implementation with feature sets of damped natural frequencies and damping ratios in the application of population-based SHM. The results outperformed conventional supervised learning algorithms in terms of classification rates. In another investigation, Ozdagli and Koutsoukos [6] used a domain-adversarial neural network to achieve domain adaptation, which provided evidence for improved prediction accuracy. Poole et al. [7] conducted domain adaptation with statistical alignment as the initial step and proved that the normal correlation alignment is robust to solve the problem of class imbalance.  \nIn this work, the core objective is to acquire data surrogates for diverse structural damage classes, which are then used to train efficient multiple classifiers.
