Operational Modal Analysis is the testing procedure yielding experimental estimates of the
modal parameters from measurements of the structural response only. This book reports …

Modal parameter estimation requires a lot of user interaction, especially when parametric
system identification methods are used and the modes are selected in a stabilization …

Modal-based damage detection algorithms are well-known techniques for structural health
assessment, but they are not commonly used due to the lack of automated modal …

Abstract Operational Modal Analysis (OMA) is one of the branches of experimental modal
analysis which allows extracting modal parameters based on measuring only the responses …

Automated modal parameter identification of civil engineering structures has been analyzed
in a previous paper. An original algorithm, named LEONIDA, working in frequency domain …

Summary Output-only (Operational) Modal Analysis (OMA) is a modern branch of
experimental modal analysis; the main advantage of OMA is its ability to extract modal …

The transmissibility-based operational modal analysis (TOMA) method is attracting more
attentions due to its relaxation of assumptions about excitation properties, making accurately …

In the last decades, new and powerful numerical methods for static and dynamic analysis
and design of civil structures have been developed: the Finite Element (FE) method, in …

During the recent years several new tools have been introduced by the Vrije Universiteit
Brussel in the field of Operational Modal Analysis (OMA) such as the transmissibility based …

Recently it has been shown that also transmissibilities can be used to identify the modal
parameters. This approach has several advantages: because of the deterministic character …
