Abstract

The behavior of structures with different damping models has been investigated using finite element and frequency response analyses. As an example, systems with hysteretic and viscous damping were examined. The damped eigenfrequencies and the corresponding loss factors were computed based on frequency response analysis and then compared to the results obtained from free vibration analysis using the method of complex eigenvalues. Recommendations are given for a more effective employment of frequency response and damping analyses in the structures considered.
