Abstract: Mathematics and physics receive the greatest attention during the early years of the engineering curriculum. This, unfortunately, does not breed the confidence necessary for engineering students to solve real‐world problems, ...

Abstract: Identification of modal parameters of a vibrating structure is a primary concern in structural dynamics. A time‐domain method for identification of modal parameters is presented in this paper. The relationship between the ...

Abstract: This paper addresses the problem of structural health monitoring (SHM) and damage detection based on a statistical model updating methodology which utilizes the measured vibration responses of the structure without any ...
