Structural Health Monitoring Using Smart Sensors (2007, methodology): “The DLV method, first developed by Bernal (2002), is based on the determination of a special set of vectors, the so-called damage locating vectors (DLVs). These DLVs have the property that when they are applied to the structure as static forces at the sensor locations, no stress is induced in the da”
Smart sensing technology: opportunities and challenges (2004, methodology): “This approach uses an extended version of the Damage Locating Vector (Bernal, 2002) method, which considers the input excitation signal to be unknown, i.”
A review of vibration-based structural health monitoring with special emphasis on composite materials (2006, methodology): “Finally, since in Bernal (2002b) the inputs could not be measured, he used flexibility proportional matrices obtained following the procedure introduced by Bernal and Gunes (2002).”
