Load Identification Using a Modified Modal Filter Technique

摘要

In this paper the authors propose a modification to the known force identification procedure based on modal filtration. The modification consists of replacing the modal vectors with the Ritz vectors. The latter seem to be more accurate because they take into account the static deformation of the structure and are less sensitive to truncation error. After the main idea- the algorithm modification- is presented, it is verified and then compared with the original solution. Two sets of data are used for this purpose, firstly simulation data from the numerical model, and then physical data recorded during a laboratory experiment.
