Abstract: This work tackles the problem of global identifiability of an undamped, shear-type, N degrees of freedom linear structural system under forced excitation without any prior knowledge of its mass ...

Abstract: This paper and its companion study constitute a two-part attempt at providing a common framework for some methodologies used in obtaining physical parameters of mechanical systems from identified state space models. In the ...

Abstract: This paper presents various numerical investigations about obtaining physical parameters of second-order mechanical systems using the algorithms that were investigated in detail in the first part of this study. To discuss ...
