Finite element model updating using incomplete complex modal data for unsymmetrical damping system with genetic algorithm is presented. The genetic algorithm method and finite element model updating based on optimization method using complex modal eigenvalue are introduced. The updating for simulation example about a flexible rotor system which is a typical unsymmetrical damping system is performed using bearing stiffness, bearing damping and diameter moment of inertia parameters. The results show that the maximum error of updated parameters is 0.15% and the objective function of genetic algorithm is 0.0081. The study demonstrates that the finite element model updating method using incomplete complex modal data with genetic algorithm is feasible and effective for unsymmetrical damping system.
