In this work, the damage identification model presented by Stutz et al. (2005) is used. The contribution of this work consists in evaluating some aspects of damage identification in beams, and then, expands the model to identify structural damage in plates. An evaluation of the behavior of the natural frequencies and the flexibility matrix for a simply supported Euler-Bernoulli beam, in the presence of damage simulated by the cohesion parameter, is presented. This analysis also allows the understanding of the regions where there is a great sensitivity to the damage, helping this way to build strategies to improve the identification of damage in regions that suffer little change in the presence of structural damage. It had been compared the behavior of the first two vibration modes of simply supported beam in the presence of a structural damage, with the first two vibration modes of the structure intact and corrupted by noise. Several methods of damage localization and optimization are evaluated in the attempt to identify the damage simulated through the field of damage proposed by Stutz et al. (2005) in the presence of noisy data. After the presentation of the results of the damage identification obtained by a simply supported Euler-Bernoulli beam, an analysis of the behavior of the natural frequencies and the flexibility matrix of an Euler-Bernoulli beam clamped in the presence of damage is presented, thus the result of damage identification considering several scenarios and noise levels are presented. The major contribution of this work is to propose a method of damage identification via flexibility matrix where the damage to the Kirchoff s plate is modeled via MEF. An analysis of the behavior of the flexibility matrix considering the presence of damage in plates and the numerical results of the damage identification with and without the presence of noisy data are presented. In order to reduce the computational cost on damage identification considering complex structures, a hybridization between the method Particle Swarm Optimization and the method Levenberg-Marquardt is proposed, and numerical results for a plate are presented.
