Response surface methodology (RSM) is a collection of mathematical and statistical techniques for
empirical model building. By careful design of experiments, the objective is to optimize a response
(output variable) which is influenced by several independent variables (input variables). An
experiment is a series of tests, called runs, in which changes are made in the input variables in order
to identify the reasons for changes in the output response .

Steps
1. Parameter screening- Various factors like young’s modulus (E), density ,poisons ration and
sectional moment of inertia were taken up as input for screening experiment (Fang & Perera,
2009). Frequencies of few modes was taken as response and percentage contribution to total model
variance of each input parameters ,including interaction effect, was taken up. It was found that
stiffness (E,I) can be taken as a parameter for model generation.
Modelling of design of experiment(DOE) has been done using deign expert software (MINITAB can
also be used).
FEM model considered is a six storey shear frame. Stiffness values taken up are Ko= 2X108 N/m,at
each storey and the mass at each storey = 1 X 105 Kg. (Roy & Ray-Chaudhuri, 2013)

The result shows that the results are not highly correlated. Thus frequencies can be used model
formation.

The outputs from the FEM model is obtained and that from RSM model is calculated using formula
given above.
Optimization was done using multi-objective optimization so that the result matches from both FEM
MODEL and RSM MODEL , in doing this the stiffness values are fixed in RSM model to obtain new set
of stiffness that will indicate the corresponding damage in the structure.
Multi-objective optimization to be used is as follows
