Recent Publications

📖

"Development of a Noise-Robust Algorithm for Crack Detection in Beams: Numerical and Experimental Analysis"

Journal of Vibration Engineering & Technologies • Vol. 13, Issue 6 • 2025

This study aims to develop a noise-robust crack detection algorithm based on finite element modelling for a single cracked cantilever beam. The objective is to accurately identify the crack location from beam deflection data, even in the presence of measurement noise.

"Prediction of production of natural energy sources using singular spectrum analysis"

Recent Advancements in Computational Intelligence and Design Engineering • pp. 391-394 • 2024

In the outburst of global warming and climate change, renewable energy sources appear as a beacon of hope. Renewable energy holds immense promise in addressing urbanization, rapid industrialization, and growing energy demand in developing nations like India.

🌡️

"Damage Localization in a Beam by Lifting Wavelet Scheme and Photographic based Experimentation"

Journal of Mines Metals and Fuels • Vol. 71, Issue 12A • 2024

The structures under fatigue loading are fault prone. The damage reduces the local stiffness. This local stiffness leads to a slope discontinuity in the structure elastic line. Localizing the local discontinuity reveals the location of the damage. Wavelet transform is a powerful tool to localize a local slope discontinuity in a signal.
