SHM-Agents: A Generalist-Specialist Integrated Agent System for Structural Health Monitoring

Artificial intelligence is increasingly used to simplify complex tasks. In engineering applications of structural health monitoring (SHM), existing specialized algorithms, while effective, often face high implementation barriers, limited interoperability and complex training procedures. To overcome these challenges, this paper proposes SHM-Agents, a generalist-specialist agent system that integrates the reasoning and planning abilities of large language models with the problem-solving strengths of specialized algorithms. SHM-Agents enables end-to-end execution of single and combined SHM tasks via natural language, supports deep learning pre-training to simplify deployment and allows flexible expansion through a modular design. Experiments on a long-span cable-stayed bridge show that SHM-Agents can accurately and efficiently perform diverse SHM tasks, including data anomaly diagnosis and recovery, signal processing, statistical analysis, modal identification, damage identification, finite element model updating, vehicle load modeling, response calculation, reliability assessment, fatigue estimation and bridge knowledge Q\&A.

Nash Equilibrium Seeking Over Directed Graphs

In this paper, we aim to develop distributed continuous-time algorithms over directed graphs to seek the Nash equilibrium in a noncooperative game. Motivated by the recent consensus-based designs, we present a distributed algorithm with a proportional gain for weight-balanced directed graphs. By further embedding a distributed estimator of the left eigenvector associated with zero eigenvalue of the graph Laplacian, we extend it to the case with arbitrary strongly connected directed graphs having possible unbalanced weights. In both cases, the Nash equilibrium is proven to be exactly reached with an exponential convergence rate. An example is given to illustrate the validity of the theoretical results.

Machine-learning-based methods for output only structural modal identification

In this study, we propose a machine-learning-based approach to identify the modal parameters of the output-only data for structural health monitoring (SHM) that makes full use of the characteristic of independence of modal responses and the principle of machine learning. By taking advantage of the independence feature of each mode, we use the principle of unsupervised learning, making the training process of the deep neural network becomes the process of modal separation. A self-coding deep neural network is designed to identify the structural modal parameters from the vibration data of structures. The mixture signals, that is, the structural response data, are used as the input of the neural network. Then we use a complex loss function to restrict the training process of the neural network, making the output of the third layer the modal responses we want, and the weights of the last two layers are mode shapes. The deep neural network is essentially a nonlinear objective function optimization problem. A novel loss function is proposed to constrain the independent feature with consideration of uncorrelation and non-Gaussianity to restrict the designed neural network to obtain the structural modal parameters. A numerical example of a simple structure and an example of actual SHM data from a cable-stayed bridge are presented to illustrate the modal parameter identification ability of the proposed approach. The results show the approach's good capability in blindly extracting modal information from system responses.
