Abstract

This paper proposes an approach that utilizes Artificial-Intelligence-Generated Content (AIGC) to overcome the constraints of Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) devices in capturing global stress with limited sensors. Feature elements are selected based on correlation analysis among finite elements and used as stress-measured points. An Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is used to establish the relationship between the feature and correlation elements. The proposed method is applied to the connector structure of an offshore platform, and an optimal ANN is established to optimize its performance by considering factors such as the number of sensors, the neural network framework, and the convergence criteria. The generalization performance of the ANN is validated through a real-scale model test, with deviations below 10% and an average deviation of less than 4% in multiple conditions, verifying its accuracy. This technology represents a significant advancement, enhancing the practicality of the SHM technology from “point monitoring” to “field monitoring”.
