✦ Synopsis

The pretest design of an efficient modal test is described from the test engineer's perspective. A pretest modal model is used together with practical considerations to arrive at the number and location of excitation and response sensors on the test structure. Sensor subsets are selected to facilitate modal parameter estimation. An example illustrates the design of a multi-input random test of a transport aeroplane. Several questions are raised in hopes of stimulating further discussion and research.

An algorithm is presented to design and optimize multispindle gear trains, of the nonspeed-change type. The designer may choose to optimize gear trains on the basis of minimum overall centre distance, minimum overall size, minimum gear volume, or other desirable criteria, such as maximum contact or

One important current focus of modal identification is a reformulation of modal parameter estimation algorithms into a single, consistent mathematical formulation with a corresponding set of definitions and unifying concepts. Particularly, a matrix polynomial approach is used to unify the presentati

The k-MAXCUT problem for undirected graphs C = (V, E ) consists of finding a partition V = V , U . . . U V, such that the number of edges with endpoints in two different sets V, is maximized. We offer a new approach to this problem by showing that the combinatorial notion of block designs can be use
