Abstract:A method is presented in this paper which uses an incomplete set of complex modal parameters identified from the experimental date to modify the structural dynamic model. The method, not requiring iteration and being programed easily,is suitable for the complex structures with general viscous damping in improving the analytical mass, damping and stiffness matrix madel of a structure with a set of minimum changes in the analytical matrics, so as to force the eigensolutions to agree with the test measurement. An example is given to demonstrate the validity of this proposed method.
