description This paper proposes a multiscale damage identification method for beam-type structures based on node curvature. Firstly, based on the assumption that micro-damage has little effect on stress redistribution and the basic relationship between structural bending moment and curvature, combined with the denoising function of wavelet analysis, the linear matrix equation before and after node curvature damage is solved using the singular value decomposition (SVD) method. Then, the theoretical feasibility of this method is verified with laboratory tests of a simply supported beam. Finally, the damage sensitivity and noise resistance of this method are verified using field measurements of a beam bridge. The results show that the nodal curvature serves as an indicator parameter for damage identification in beam-type structures, enabling the precise localization of damage within these structures. When utilizing a multiscale finite element model for analysis, the nodal curvature enhances the ability to identify both the location and severity of damage within small-scale elements. Furthermore, this method can provide a reference for the damage identification and health monitoring of other types of bridges.
