报告摘要

Abstract

Uncertainty quantification (UQ) is a pervasive aspect of industrial structural applications, encompassing design, optimisation, monitoring, and prognostics. This presentation will provide an overview of a selection of research projects that employ a Bayesian approach to modelling, robust design under uncertainty, and degradation assessment for safety-critical industrial structures.

Robust early-stage industrial design of complex structures, such as aircraft wings, presents significant challenges due to design immaturity, a wide range of loading and operating conditions, and potential variability during manufacturing and assembly. The study presented herein aims to develop an approach for exploring the design space with a data-driven surrogate model that maps design parameters to a high-dimensional vector-valued output describing the response of quantities at locations under a range of operating scenarios. The optimal design of structural parameters under uncertainty is undertaken using a Bayesian inversion to identify probabilistic margins on design parameters in the presence of stochastic variability. The proposed approach is guided by a novel confidence-based criterion of meeting designer-specified performance thresholds. The results demonstrate the accuracy and computational savings of complex industrial design, and facilitates the expansion of the design space for complex industrial design workflows.

Continuous monitoring of safety-critical structures ensures reliable performance, maintenance, and prognostics. Acousto-ultrasonic signals monitor and interrogate these structures for concealed damage. Probabilistic characterisation of elastic properties reconstructs dispersive wave modes using Bayesian inversion, quantifying localised structural degradation. We explore minimal signal acquisition hardware footprint by integrating edge computing and physics-informed machine learning techniques for real-time structural monitoring. This approach is conceptualised as a Cyberphysical Structural Health Monitoring (CyberSHM) system, an automated monitoring framework integrated with the internet and collaborating with human end-users. The study utilises carbon-fibre composite panels with stiffeners as a test bench, subjecting them to impact and fatigue loading and monitoring with a

CyberSHM system, demonstrating its effectiveness, challenges, and a step towards realising the futuristic vision of automated continuous monitoring systems.
