An automatic finite element modelling for deformation analysis of composite structures

authored by: Hao Yang, Xiangyang Xu, Ingo Neumann
Abstract: Terrestrial laser scanning is extensively adopted in the area of high-precision monitoring and three-dimensional measurement. Architectural structures today are increasingly complex and health monitoring plays an important role in guaranteeing their safety. Therefore, how reliability deformation monitoring can be improved is one of the key problems in the field of engineering. This paper combines the three-dimensional laser scanning technology and finite element method (FEM) to investigate the deformation mechanism of arched structures. Within this paper, we simulated arched structures using the FEM, which is consistent with the result of terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) measurement. We aimed at constructing an intelligent and efficient FEM model which can be extensively applied in the monitoring of many constructs, such as bridges and ancient architecture. The focus in this research lies mainly on deformation analysis, which is based on FEM model simulation with the calibration of TLS measurement.
