SUMMARY:Digital twinning of infrastructures using statistical finite eleme
 nt method (statFEM) - Eky Febrianto\, University of Glasgow

DESCRIPTION:The monitoring of infrastructure assets using sensor networks 
 is becoming increasingly prevalent. A digital twin in the form of a finit
 e element (FE) model can help make sense of the copious amount of collecte
 d sensor data. This talk reviews the statistical finite element method (
 statFEM) that provides the means of synthesising measurement data and FE m
 odels. In statFEM\, the data and FE model are random variables with uncer
 tainties associated with measurement error\, random inputs\, and modelling
  assumptions. A physics-informed prior density distribution of the system
  response\, e.g.\, strain or displacement\, is given by a conventional st
 ochastic forward problem. The posterior density of the system response is
  obtained through the Bayes rule from the postulated prior density and a d
 ata-dependent likelihood function. This talk also presents the application
  of statFEM to predict the structural response of an instrumented steel ra
 ilway bridge and nonlinear continuous welded rail system. \n
