A N ANALYSIS OF DIFFERENT STUDIES ON STRUCTURAL DAMAGE DETECTION USING PSO (2005-2020) tabulated scheme is utilized to make a desirable accessibility possible for the application of PSO in the structural damage detection methods, and to analyze the cons and pros of the different variants of PSO. Tab. 2 summarizes the application of PSO in detecting structural damages by some categorizations including the following:  Reference and Year : Represent the authors’ names and the publication date, respectively.  Objective : This section answers the question of why the paper is presented and what the main contribution is.  Methodology: The algorithms, tools, and techniques employed in solving damage detection problems are presented i n this section.  Structure : This section answers the question of what type of structures are utilized for implementing the structural A
