The inverse structural modification for assigning a subset of natural frequencies of a
structure to some targeted values has been found to inevitably lead to undesired changes to …

A structural modification method based on frequency response functions is presented in
terms of an inverse eigenvalue problem. The design objective is to derive multiple lumped …

Structural modification methods were proved to be very useful for large structures, especially
when modification is local. Although there may be inherent nonlinearities in a structural …

This study is aimed at eliminating the influence of the higher-order modes on the frequency
response functions (FRFs) of non-proportionally viscously damped systems. Based on the …

The aim of this study is to investigate means of efficiently assessing the effects of distributed
structural modification on the dynamic properties of a complex structure. The dynamic …

This paper presents a theoretical study of the frequency assignment problem of a coupled
system via structural modification of one of its subsystems. It deals with the issue in which …

A computational multiphysics model of the coupled beam-substrate-electrostatic actuation
dynamics of MEMS resonators has been developed for the model-based prediction of Q …

Frequency response and their sensitivities analysis are of fundamental importance. Due to
the fact that the mode truncation errors of frequency response functions (FRFs) are …

During the design and development stages of mechanical structures, after each modification
made in order to satisfy design criteria, dynamic characteristics of the structure change and …

The need for modification in many mechanical systems occurs due to the parameters that
are not taken into account during the design process and the changes made on the main …
