Characterization of damping forces in a vibrating structure has long been an active area of research in structural dynamics. The most common approach is to use &&viscous damping'' where the instantaneous generalized velocities are the only relevant state variables that a!ect damping forces. However,

β¦ Synopsis
In two recent papers (Adhikari and Woodhouse 2001 Journal of Sound and <ibration 243, 43}61; 63}88), methods were proposed to identify viscous and non-viscous damping models for vibrating systems using measured complex frequencies and mode shapes. In many cases, the identi"ed damping matrix becomes asymmetric, a non-physical result. Methods are presented here to identify damping models which preserve symmetry of the system. Both viscous and non-viscous models are considered. The procedure is based on a constrained error minimization approach and uses only experimentally identi"ed complex modes and complex natural frequencies together with, for the non-viscous model, the mass matrix of the system. The methods are illustrated by numerical examples.

methods were proposed to obtain the coe$cient matrix for a viscous damping model or a non-viscous damping model with an exponential relaxation function, from measured complex natural frequencies and modes. In all these works, it has been assumed that exact complex natural frequencies and complex mod
