Abstract :
In this paper the time-delay neural networks (TDNNs) have been implemented in detecting the damage in bridge structure using vibration signature analysis. A simulation study has been carried out for the incomplete measurement data. It has been observed that TDNNs have performed better than traditional neural networks in this application and the arithmetic of the TDNNs is simple.
