✦ Synopsis
The paper concerns the reconstruction of a consistent FEM model of an in-line system of 2-dof elements, fixed at one end and free at the other. Such a system has tridiagonal stiffness and mass matrices, K, M. Because each element has one rigid body mode, K has negative codiagonal and is constrained to have a particular form. M has positive codiagonal. It is shown how to construct (an infinite family of) such models so that each has a specified undamped frequency response at the free end, and how to construct a system with a damper at the free end so that the system has specified (complex) eigenvalues.

In this paper we solve an eigenvalue problem arising from the computation of the vibrations of a coupled system, incompressible uid -elastic structure, in absence of external forces. We use displacement variables for both the solid and the uid but the uid displacements are written as curls of a stre

This paper addresses the problem of determining unknown physical connectivities for inclusion in a "nite element model by using standard frequency response measurements. In general, neither the topology nor the sti!ness of such connectivities are known. A method is presented based on two systems of
