SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Comprehensively covers the basic principles and practice of Operational Modal Analysis (OMA). Covers all important aspects that are needed to understand why OMA is a practical tool for modal testingCovers advanced topics, including closely spaced modes, mode shape scaling, mode shape expansion and estimation of stress and strain in operational responsesDiscusses practical applications of Operational Modal AnalysisIncludes examples supported by MATLAB® applicationsAccompanied by a website hosting a MATLAB® toolbox for Operational Modal Analysis
