Identification of structural parameters and hydrodynamic effects for forced and free vibration

Creator:

Kruchoski, Brian L. (Brian Louis)

Abstract:

Statistically-based estimation techniques are presented in this study. These techniques incorporate structural test data to improve finite element models used for dynamic analysis. Methods are developed to identify optimum values of the parameters of finite element models describing structures. The parameters which may be identified are : element area, mass...
