Cables are the main load-bearing structural components of long-span bridges, such as suspension bridges and cable-stayed bridges. When relative slip occurs among the wires in a cable, the local bending stiffness of the cable will significantly decrease, and the cable enters a local interlayer slip damage state. The decrease in the local bending stiffness caused by the local interlayer slip damage to the cable is symmetric or approximately symmetric for multiple elements at both the fixed end and the external load position. An eigenpair sensitivity identification method is introduced in this study to identify the interlayer slip damage to the cable. First, an eigenparameter sensitivity calculation formula is deduced. Second, the cable is discretized as a mass-spring-damping structural system considering stiffness and damping, and the magnitude of the cable interlayer slip damage is simulated based on the degree of stiffness reduction. The Tikhonov regularization method is introduced to solve the damage identification equation of the inverse problem, and artificial white noise is introduced to evaluate the robustness of the method to noise. Numerical examples of stayed cables are investigated to illustrate the efficiency and accuracy of the method proposed in this study.
