Modifications to the Method of Modal Strain Energy for Improved Estimates of Loss Factors for Damped Structures

The method of Modal Strain Energy (MSE) enables predictions of modal loss factors for vibrating systems from finite element analyses without evaluation of a complex-valued frequency response or a complex-valued frequency. While the method is simple, some error results; especially if the dissipative...
