Experimental modal analysis is a relatively young part of dynamics, which deals with the vibration modes identification of machines or their parts. Its development has started since the beginning of the eighties, when the computers hardware equipment has improved and the fast Fourier transform (FFT) could be used for the results determination. Nowadays it provides an uncountable set of vibration analysis possibilities starting with conventional contact transducers of acceleration and ending with modern noncontact optical methods. In this contribution we mention the use of high-speed digital image correlation by experimental determination of mode shapes and modal frequencies. The aim of our work is to create a program application called Modan 3D enabling the performing of experimental modal analysis and operational modal analysis. In this paper the experimental modal analysis of a thin steel sample performed with Q-450 Dantec Dynamics is described. In Modan 3D the experiment data were processed and the vibration modes were determined. The reached results were verified by PULSE modulus specialized for mechanical vibration analysis.

Abstract In this contribution an influence of random contrast patterns creation on the quality of the obtained results of experimental modal analysis performed by high-speed digital image correlation is described. Three common forms of random pattern creation were investigated. While the first form was presented by the black speckles printed on white matt vinyl foil and bonded on the sample surface, in the second and the third case, respectively, the black speckles were sprayed on white sprayed sample surface or on paint white one. For the purposes of modal parameters estimation in the form of natural frequencies, mode shapes and damping ratios the program called Modan3D, developed in the authors department, was used. The results obtained by Modan3D were compared with the results achieved by system Pulse specialized for vibration analysis.

Paper deals with the identification of coupled mode shapes by experimental modal analysis. Main attention is focused on the using of Complex Mode Indicator Function that is based on singular value decomposition of frequency response function matrix and allows to separate coupled and also closed modes. In the paper there is described experimental modal analysis at which digital image correlation method is used to measure responses of a circular plate. The measurement was evaluated in program Modan 3D that is being developed by the authors.

With the vibration exciter, the experimental modal analysis and vibration analysis of high-speed industrial sewing machine was carried out in this paper. The results show that the sewing machine will be of resonance at the operating speed of 4000r/min, which means the structure of the chassis of the sewing machine should be optimized.

Abstract Experimental modal analysis of a violin with three different tensions of a bass bar has been performed. The bass bar tension is the only intentionally introduced modification of the instrument. The aim of the study was to find differences and similarities between top plate modal parameters determined by a bass bar perfectly fitting the shape of the top plate, the bass bar with a tension usually applied by luthiers (normal), and the tension higher than the normal value. In the modal analysis four signature modes are taken into account. Bass bar tension does not change the sequence of mode shapes. Changes in modal damping are insignificant. An increase in bass bar tension causes an increase in modal frequencies A0 and B(1+) and does not change the frequencies of modes CBR and B(1-).

Experimental characterization and validation of skin components in aircraft entails multiple evaluations (structural, aerodynamic, acoustic, etc.) and expensive campaigns. They require different rigs and equipment to perform the necessary tests. Two of the main dynamic characterizations include the energy absorption under impact forcing and the identification of modal parameters through the vibration response under any broadband excitation, which also includes impacts. This work exploits the response of a stiffened aircraft composite panel submitted to a multi-impact excitation, which is intended for impact and energy absorption analysis. Based on the high stiffness of composite materials, the study worked under the assumption that the global response to the multi-impact excitation is linear with small strains, neglecting the nonlinear behavior produced by local damage generation. Then, modal identification could be performed. The vibration after the impact was measured by high-speed 3D digital image correlation and employed for full-field operational modal analysis. Multiple modes were characterized in a wide spectrum, exploiting the advantages of the full-field noninvasive techniques. These results described a consistent modal behavior of the panel along with good indicators of mode separation given by the auto modal assurance criterion (Auto-MAC). Hence, it illustrates the possibility of performing these dynamic characterizations in a single test, offering additional information while reducing time and investment during the validation of these structures.


This article presents a critical review of recent research done on crack identification and localization in structural beams using numerical and experimental modal analysis. Crack identification and localization in beams are very crucial in various engineering applications such as ship propeller shafts, aircraft wings, gantry cranes, and Turbo machinery blades. It is necessary to identify the damage in time; otherwise, there may be serious consequences like a catastrophic failure of the engineering structures. Experimental modal analysis is used to study the vibration characteristics of structures like natural frequency, damping and mode shapes. The modal parameters like natural frequency and mode shapes of undamaged and damaged beams are different. Based on this reason, structural damage can be detected, especially in beams. From the review of various research papers, it is identified that a lot of the research done on beams with open transverse crack. Crack location is identified by tracking variation in natural frequencies of a healthy and cracked beam

With the purpose of realizing the analysis of mechanical structure dynamic characteristics and inhibit vibration and noise, combined with the analysis of a certain type of high speed sewing machines vibration characteristics, we carry on the concrete experimental modal analysis, and compare the results of the experimental modal analysis with the results of spectrum analysis. The analysis results show that the second order natural frequency of the shell is close to two octaves under the normal working speed of sewing machine and it will lead to resonance. Enhancing the structural rigidity and the natural frequency under this modal to avoid resonance frequency is the key to improve vibration resistance of the structure.
