Abstract: This mini-symposium proposes the assessment of structural behavior using the monitoring data with the adjustment of numerical models to evaluate the structural safety and to identify significant structural parameters. Relevant topics include new experimental techniques for health monitoring, modal identification, model updating, damage identification, statistical methods, stochastic simulation techniques, feature extraction and data fusion, damage prognosis, prediction of remaining service life, and structural reliability updating using measurements.
