An Efficient Damage Identification Method for Simply Supported Beams Based on Strain Energy Information Entropy

Table 3

Damage case studies in the hinged slab.

Damage case	Damage element no.	Damage severity (%)
5	25	10
6	25	30
7	10, 35	10
8	10, 35	30
9	10, 35	30 (5% noise)
10	5, 15, 25, 35	30 (10% noise)
11	5, 15, 25, 35	20, 20, 20, 20
12	5, 15, 25, 35	10, 20, 30, 40
13	5, 15, 25, 35	40, 10, 20, 10

Note. “10, 30 (5% noise)” represents an addition of 5% noise error in the damage case study.
