In this paper the authors propose the use of generic elements as a viable tool for parametric model-based damage detection. The parameters gained by use of generic substructure are shown to be sensitive features to introduced damage. The proposed scheme is applied to experimental data from thin-walled H-shaped welded frame structure measured in different states of damage.
