... to the asymmetry of cross section as well as eccentricity between centroid of the section and shear deformation centres. The acurate estimation of dry natural frequency and modes shapes of structure is indispensable since it helps to validate the accuracy of the structural modelling. A numerical method available...

.... The main advantage of the technique is that the identification of the parameters of the structure is achieved without previous knowledge of the excitation forces. This paper extends the random decrement technique to obtain the mode shapes of the structure using the concept of a multichannel random...
