Identification Methods
The work is done either in
the frequency domain - Modal ID methodsusing the Frequency Response Function (FRF) information
or in the
time domain - Time Domain ID methodswhere an analytical or numerical (FE) model of the system orinformation from the Impulse Response Function (IRF) are used.
Reminder: The IRF is the inverse Fourier Transform of the FRF.

Modal ID Methods
Modal Id Methods
aim at determining the inherent dynamic characteristics of a systemin forms of natural frequencies, damping factors and mode shapes,and using them to formulate a mathematical model for its dynamicbehavior.The formulated mathematical model is referred to as modal modeland the information for the characteristics are known as its modaldata.
Modal analysis is based upon the fact that the vibration response ofa linear time-invariant (LTI) dynamic system can be expressed as thelinear combination of a set of simple harmonic motions called thenatural modes of vibration.This concept is akin to the use of a Fourier combination of sine andcosine waves to represent a complicated waveform.

Modal ID Methods
Basic Concepts
Assume an N-degree of freedom system with damping:
Mx + Cx + Kx = F
x is the N 1 state space vector of the system and M,C,K are thesystem mass, damping and stiffness matrices.
In steady state conditions (i.e. once the free response has dieddown), we showed that one can establish the relationship betweenthe complex amplitude of the response X and the input F = F0e it
as:
X = H(i) F
where H is the FRF matrix

Modal ID Methods
As already mentioned in Lecture 5 (slide 5), the FRF can be written inpartial fraction expansion. (i.e poles/residues form):
H() =N
k=1
Aki k
+Ak
i k
where Ak is the modal constant matrix with components kAij related tocomponents ik , jk of eigenvector k through the formula:
kAij = qkikjk and qk is a modal participation factor
In addition, index k corresponds to the k-th mode and the poles of thedenominator are simply the roots of the characteristic polynomial:
k , k = kk i

Modal ID Methods
The Frequency Response Function
We already discussed that the component Hij of the FRF matrix, H,corresponds to a particular output response at point i due to aninput force at point j .
Based on this, Modal testing is an experimental technique used toderive the modal model of a LTI vibratory system.Combinations of excitation and response at different locations leadto a complete set of frequency response functions (FRFs) which canbe collectively represented by an FRF matrix of the system.This matrix is usually symmetric, reflecting the structural reciprocityof the system i.e. Hij = Hji .

Basic Concepts
The Impulse Response Function hij(), is the equivalent of Hij() inthe time domain, hence it can be obtained using IFT and theproperty
F1{

or hij(t) = (kAijek t +k A

with k = rk + ik
1 2k
Ultimately this can also be compactly written as:
hij(t) =2Nk=1
kAijek t
(with a slightly different notation for kAij , k)

Basic Concepts
Modal ID Fundamentals
Returnign to the definition of the FRF, since the matrices of residualsAk , are of rank one, meaning that they can be decomposed as:
Ak = kTk =
1k...Nk
[ 1k Nk ]k : eigenvector of mode k
then it follows that essentially, the FRF of a linear mdof system withN dofs is the sum of N sdof FRFs (modal superposition) and thetransfer function matrix is completely characterized by the modalparameters i.e the roots of the character polynomial m and themode shape vectors m, m = 1, . . . , N

Basic Concepts
Mode Shapes and Operating Deflection Shapes
At or near the natural frequency of a mode, the overall vibrationshape will be dominated by the mode shape of the resonance.
Applying a harmonic force at one of the degrees of freedom, say r, ata frequency idn (damped frequency of the nth mode) results in adisplacement vector, X (dn), which is approximately proportional tothe mode shape vector of mode n, i.e n.
In reality there is always a small contribution of the other modes.
Within this context of properly exciting the structure, modal testingwas also known as resonance testing, as it initiated using variousshakers properly tuned in order to put the structure into resonance.

Modal Testing
The practice of modal testing involves measuring the FRFs or impulseresponses of a structure. The FRF measurement can simply be done byasserting a measured excitation at one location of the structure in theabsence of other excitations and measure vibration responses at one ormore location(s). The excitation can be of a selected frequency band,stepped sinusoid, transient, random or white noise. It is usually measuredby a force transducer at the driving point while the response is measured byaccelerometers or other probes.
Given input and output time histories the FRF can be calculated throughthe output/input Fourier Transform ratio:
Y () = H()X ()
H() =Y ()
X ()where X () = F {x(t)} ,Y () = F {y(t)}
Important Note: When the Input corresponds to an impulse i.e.
x(t) = (t) , the Fourier transform is F {x(t)} = 1 H() = Y ()

Modal Testing
For a structural system what is usually measured as input is the force(F ) inputted to the system. However the measured output can bedisplacement (U), velocity (U) or acceleration (U).
Therefore, based on the available measurements we distinguishbetween the following cases:
H() =U()
F ()Receptance FRF
H() =U()
F ()Mobility FRF
H() =U()
F ()Accelerance FRF
Also, when the response and excitation coordinates coincide (i = j),the FRF component Hij is referred to as a point FRF. For i 6= j wehave a transfer FRF.

Modal Testing
As it turns out, using fundamental properties from signal processing,the previous formulation for the estimation of the FRF is equivalentto the following ratio:
H() =Syx()
Sxx()where
Sxx stands for Power Spectral Density andSyx stands for Cross Spectral Density
This calculation proves to yield more smoothed results in thepresence of noise and is therefore preferable.
In MATLAB the FRF is estimated via the buil-in tfestimate function.

Definitions -Power Spectral Density
The PSD is the FT of autocorrelation function (ACF) of a signal. Itrefers to the amount of power per unit (density) of frequency(spectral) as a function of the frequency.
Sxx() =
Rxx(t)eitdt = F (Rxx)
This is a positive, real valued function of frequency, often called thespectrum of a signal.
Note: For the PSD to exist, the Random Process (signal) has to beat least Wide Sense Stationary (WSS).
