Optimal sensor placement methods are used to provide informative data with the least cost and maximum efficiency. In this study, a robust optimal sensor placement framework that combines an optimization-based algorithm, the simulated annealing (SA) algorithm, and the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) are presented for structural health monitoring and system identification. The SA algorithm randomly generates an initial population of sensor locations, while the framework undergoes a minimization process. The objective function used is the difference between the actual measured data and their corresponding EnKF predicted values. A comparative analysis between the genetic algorithm–ensemble Kalman filter (GA-EnKF) and the simulated annealing–ensemble Kalman filter (SA-EnKF) approaches is presented. The performance and computational burden of both algorithms, which converge to the best sensor locations for damage detection purposes, are tested on a 10-story building subjected to a seismic excitation. The results are compared to the optimal sensor locations of the brute-force search methodology. The GA-EnKF outperforms the SA-EnKF in terms of accuracy in converging to the optimal results, yet the computational cost of the SA-EnKF is considerably lower. |
