The thesis presents a comprehensive approach for structural assessment of bridges based on dynamic testing. The two essential stakes are respectively the dynamic realization of tests under service loads and the detection and/or localization of damage. The first objective requires the development of appropriate modal identification techniques, while the second requires powerful, sensitive and reliable techniques which do not rely on numeric models (like finite elements models) often not available for all bridges.The first part of this thesis is devoted to the problems of modal identification under ambient excitation, such as the realization of vibration tests, the choice of excitations and the interest to involve ambient excitations for test...
