This paper presents experimental verification and comparison of damage detection methods based on changes in mode shapes such as: mode shape curvature (MSC), damage index (DI), strain energy (SE), modified Laplacian operator (MLO), generalized fractal dimension (GFD) and Wavelets Transform (WT). The object of the investigation is to determine benefits and drawbacks of the aforementioned methods and to develop data preprocessing algorithms for increasing damage assessment effectiveness by using signal processing techniques such as interpolation and extrapolation of measured points. Noise reduction algorithms are also tested. The experiments were performed on a steel cantilever beam and on an aluminium plate with riveted stiffeners. Damage was introduced in a form of open crack for beam object and damaged rivets and a saw cut in the angle bar for plate structure. Measurements were made using non‐contact Scanning Laser Doppler Vibrometer (SLDV) at 125 points along beam length and 101 points in two rows, distributed on over the plate height and positioned along two reinforcing ribs.
