On Damage Identification in Planar Frames of Arbitrary Size

Figure 13

An example of the identification procedure for a frame with five floors and five columns. Starting from its initial position on a randomly selected section (a), the jumper (green circle) progressively explores its neighbouring sections (coloured in red) and moves on those with the best fitness (b-c) until it reaches the target at the end of the run. See text for more details.
