N2 - The recently proposed Shaped Damage Locating Input Distribution (SDLID) methodlocates structural damage by active interrogation with controllable inputs. The methodologicalpremise is to shape these inputs such that certain steady-state vibration features(depending on the type of damage to be located) are rendered dormant in one subdomainat a time. As such, damage is localized when the vibration response induced by the shapedinputs in the damaged state corresponds to that stored for the reference state. Previously,the SDLID method, which operates free of system identification, has been tested throughnumerical simulations and, in this context, demonstrated its merits; namely, a low demandon output sensors, robustness towards noise, and conceptual simplicity. This paperpresents an experimental application study, in which the SDLID method is used to locatedifferent mass perturbations in a frame structure investigated using two actuators deliveringharmonic excitation. Based on steady-state acceleration measurements, it is shownhow the method succeeds in locating all the added mass perturbations.
