We used array-based ambient vibration modal analysis and eigenfrequency modeling to characterize the dynamic behavior and structural conditions of a partly collapsed lava tube roof. Multiple resonance modes were identified from spectral and cross-correlation analyses, and used to calibrate a heterogeneous numerical model of the lava tube. Our study shows that the combination of experimental and numerical modal analysis is a valuable tool for mapping and structural characterization of underground cavity roofs.

Abstract

We used array-based ambient vibration modal analysis and eigenfrequency modeling to characterize the dynamic behavior and structural conditions of a partly collapsed lava tube roof. Multiple resonance modes were identified from spectral and cross-correlation analyses, and used to calibrate a heterogeneous numerical model of the lava tube. Our study shows that the combination of experimental and numerical modal analysis is a valuable tool for mapping and structural characterization of underground cavity roofs.
