Abstract
Condition monitoring of bridge structures as the lifelines of smart cities is high of importance. While indirect vehicle scanning techniques have shown promising results and have less cost compared to mounting fixed sensors on the bridge, they have limitations in predicting response under traffic flow since the crossing time of one vehicle is very short. This paper presents a novel crowsensing-based framework for predicting bridge acceleration responses and identifying the modal characteristics. This method utilizes smartphone data from a diverse population of sensing vehicles as they traverse the bridge to predict bridge acceleration response at various virtual sensing locations. Subsequently, the predicted acceleration is used to identify the mode shapes and natural frequencies of the bridge. The principal innovation in this practical and cost-effective monitoring solution is the utilization of a randomly selected set of sensing vehicles at each timestamp. These selections may differ from one timestamp to the next, reflecting the real-world conditions where certain vehicles may intermittently lose or disconnect their internet connectivity. By consistently updating the set of sensing agents while other vehicles cross the bridge, the proposed framework overcomes the data length limitations of conventional vehicle-based methods by leveraging multiple vehicles and continuous data collection. Comprehensive numerical studies are conducted to evaluate the performance of the method. In the numerical investigations, a three-span bridge is subjected to the continuous passing of a large number of half-car vehicle models with random speeds and initial locations. Vehicle-bridge interaction is considered in the analysis. Utilizing a single randomly selected sensing agent at each timestamp, the results demonstrate the effectiveness of the framework in predicting bridge acceleration response with a relative error of less than 5%. Additionally, the method achieves an accuracy level of 95% in identifying the bridge's initial three mode shapes.
