The second volume is about modal analysis, computational methods for large eigenvalue problems, analysis of frequency response data by nonparametric methods, identification of dynamic structural parameters, dynamic model reduction and test-analysis correlation.
This book could be used as a textbook for a second course in Mechanical Vibrations or for a course at master level on Test-Analysis Correlation in Engineering Dynamics. For full comprehension of the mathematics employed, the reader should be familiar with matrix algebra and basic eigenvalue computations.
It addresses to students pursuing their master or doctorate studies, to postdoc students and research scientists working in the field of Structural Dynamics and Mechanical Vibrations, being a prerequisite for those ted in finite element model updating and experimental modal analysis.
The course reflects the authors experience and presents results from his publications. Some advanced methods, currently used in experimental modal analysis and parameter estimation of mechanical and structural systems, are not treated and can be found in the comprehensive bibliography at the end of each chapter.
Related not treated topics include: sensitivity analysis, modal analysis using operating deflection shapes, real normalization of complex modes, structural dynamics modification, automated finite element model updating, error localization, structural damage detection and material identification.
