  abstract     = {{Structural Damage Identification (SDI) is a crucial branch in the field of structural health monitoring, providing an essential support for the safe operation of structures. In this paper, a novel structural damage identification method based on a surrogate-assisted evolutionary optimization algorithm is proposed. This method incorporates cost-effective surrogate modelling techniques and swarm intelligence optimization algorithms with powerful global optimization capabilities. Three popular surrogate models are fused based on a weighted average strategy to construct an integrated surrogate model with stronger generalization ability and higher accuracy. In addition, the self-designed movement strategy is more suitable for the characteristics of Termite Life Cycle Optimizer (TLCO), allowing the improved TLCO to have stronger robustness and the capability to escape from local optimum. The effectiveness of the proposed method for solving the SDI problem is confirmed in a damaged dam model with different complexities. Some important findings are as follows: (i) Compared with the conventional SDI methods, which directly combines optimization algorithms and finite element models, the proposed method maintains reliable accuracy, while improving computational efficiency by a factor of more than 100. (ii) There is no direct relationship between the accuracy of the surrogate models and the effectiveness of the SDI method based on their combination with ITLCO. The proposed method can serve as a promising tool for damage identification in large-scale structures.}},
