Summary

The matrix perturbation theory for structural dynamic modification and sensitivity analysis is presented in this

chapter. The theory covers a broad spectrum of subjects, specifically, matrix perturbation of real modes of complex

structures and matrix perturbation of complex modes. The contents include nine sections. Section 33.2 provides the

preliminaries to matrix perturbation and sensitivity analysis. Section 33.3 presents the matrix perturbation

method including first-order and second-order perturbation. Section 33.4 presents methods for design sensitivity

analysis. In Section 33.5, high-accuracy modal superposition for sensitivity analysis of modes is given. Section 33.6

presents the sensitivity analysis of eigenvectors for free – free structures. In Section 33.7 and Section 33.8, matrix

perturbations for repeated modes and closely spaced modes are discussed. In Section 33.9, the matrix perturbation

approach for complex modes is presented.
