Description
This book covers vibration testing and identification of dynamic structural systems. It starts from the fundamentals of structural dynamics, and covers the methods of modal analysis and model identification, vibration tests and the related experimental setup. It concludes with an outline of the authors' software, demonstrating practical applications, and illustrated with real-world case studies of full-scale structures.
Theory is presented and derived step-by-step, with a detailed measurement system developed for vibration tests. This book is written for Masters students and enables them to understand the theories of system identification and empowers them to apply this in practice.
