✦ Synopsis


The accuracy of the computations involved in predicting the dynamic behaviour of mechanical structures depends on the quality of the mathematical model. In order to improve this quality, a qualitative method allowing the determination of dominant errors in a non-dissipative finite element model is presented.

The method is based on the simultaneous use of the orthonormal relationships satisfied respectively by the eigenmodes derived from the finite element model and from the structure itself. This determination is the first stage in a subsequent parametric readjustment of the finite element model.

A fundamental question in finite element model updating and error localisation is whether sufficient identifiability of model parameters is at hand for a given set of test data. Under certain conditions, the dynamic properties (to be compared with test data) of a structural model, may change similar

## Abstract The wavelet‐based methods are powerful to analyse the field problems with changes in gradients and singularities due to the excellent multi‐resolution properties of wavelet functions. Wavelet‐based finite elements are often constructed in the wavelet space where field displacements are
