Abstract: Two modeling methodologies of the dynamics of a motor-compressor system are presented. The first approach considered only the mechanical system subjected to a sinusoidal input force with the ...

Abstract: A technique is proposed which systematically adjusts a finite element model of a structure to produce an updated model in agreement with measured modal results. The approach suggested here is ...

Abstract: An output feedback method is developed, that systematically places a desired number of poles of a closed-loop system at or near desired locations. The system is transformed to its equivalent ...

Abstract: In modeling structures the damping matrix is the most difficult to represent. This is even more difficult in complicated structures that are not lightly damped. The work presented here provides ...
