Abstract
Design sensitivity requires knowledge of the accurate characteristics of system dynamics to determine the solution parameters—eigenvalues or eigenvectors. This paper presents a new form of sensitivity analysis based on transmissibility functions that can indicate the appropriate candidate node for minimal design modification. The proposed sensitivity analysis uses only measured response data and is performed under intact conditions without any system identification. The feasibility of the proposed sensitivity analysis is first verified through both an experiment and a computer-aided analysis of the uniaxial vibration of a notched beam; then its methodology is investigated by simulation involving a 5-degrees-of-freedom system.
