Method and apparatus for monitoring structural health

Abstract

A method includes performing a first damage prediction with a computational model using at least data from a first multitude of damage sensors on a structure, performing a second damage prediction with the computational model using at least data from a second multitude of load sensors associated with the structure, and selectively performing a damage monitoring action in response to the first damage prediction and the second damage prediction to determine a structural health A system includes a computing device configured to perform a first damage prediction using at least data from a multitude of damage sensors on a structure, a second damage predication using at least data from a multitude of load sensors associated with the structure, so as to selectively perform a damage monitoring action in response to the first damage prediction and the second damage prediction to determine a structural health of the structure.
