英文摘要：

Transfer entropy was introduced to detect the damage in a beam structure by acceleration signals. A simply supported concrete beam was analyzed by using Abaqus, and the bending vibration of the beam only exits in its principal plane was assumed during the analysis. Elastic damage in the concrete beam was simulated via reducing the elastic modulus in a specified element. Gaussian excitation was applied in numerical analysis. Signal data were sampled several times at each damage level to ensure the result of transfer entropy, and the mean value of transfer entropy at all time scales was used to identify the damage. The linearized transfer entropy method was validated by kernel density estimation method based on the acceleration signals of the beam. Transfer entropy was proved to be an effective tool to accurately identify the damage degree and locate the damage in concrete structures by defining two different damage indexes.
