This paper examines dynamic response of a type of structural system that exhibits a significant degree of rigid body motion during earthquakes. An assembly of two-dimensional rigid prisms subjected to self-imposed kinematic constraints is chosen as a representative model for this type of structure.
In the present paper, the authors propose a new experimental method of identifying the set of spatial matrices. This method identifies the spatial matrices, namely mass matrix, damping matrix and stiffness matrix, which describe the properties of dynamic structures, using experimentally measured FRF
power fluctuation and target-reflectivity variation. All the theoretical and experimental results are capable of offering quantitative guidance for the design and implementation of fiber-bundle sensors.
