Recently, the authors proposed computationally attractive algorithms to determine the location and extent of structural damage for undamped structures assuming damage results in a localized change in stiffness properties. The algorithms make use of a finite-element model and a subset of measured eigenvalues and eigenvectors. The developed theories approach the damage location and extent problem in a decoupled fashion. First, a theory is developed to determine the location of structural damage. With location determined, a damage extent theory is then developed. The damage extent algorithm is a minimum rank perturbation, which is consistent with the effects of many classes of structural damage on a finite-element model. In this work, the concept of the minimum rank perturbation theory (MRPT) is adopted to determine the damage extent on the mass properties of an undamped structure. In addition, the MRPT is extended to the case of proportionally damped structures. For proportionally damped structures, the MRPT is used to find the damage extent in any two of the three structural property matrices (mass, damping, or stiffness). Finally, illustrative case studies using both numerical and actual experimental data are presented.
