It has recently been reported that any viscously damped linear system can be decoupled in the configuration space by a real, nonlinear, time-dependent transformation. The purpose of this rapid communication is to provide a few clarifying remarks about the decoupling operation. It is shown that, for
The "deficient" system that exists when the geometric multiplicity of an eigenvalue of a linear vibrating system is less than its algebraic multiplicity is defined and constructed. A complex mode theory is developed for the deficient system. The normal complex modes and generalized complex modes are
