Notes:
A vibration-based approach to detect crack damage in a cantilever composite wingbox isstudied using the improved Hilbert-Huang Transform (HHT). The improved HHT is composed ofHHT with Wavelet Packet Transform (WPT) and a simple but effective method for intrinsic modefunction (IMF) selection. For different damage status, in order to obtain structural dynamic responses,which imply plentiful damage information, the composite wing boxes were excited by a contrivedsquare wave signal. Then, the dynamic responses of intact wingbox and damaged wingbox aredisposed using improved HHT. Finally, a feature index vector of structural damage, i.e. the [removed info]ariationquantity of instantaneous energy, is constructed. The obtained results show that the proposed damagefeature index vector is more sensitive to small damage than those in traditional signal processing
