A note on classical damping matrices.

An alternative damping matrix that leads to classical normal modes and that depends explicitly on a set of prescribed modal damping ratios is presented. The alternative damping matrix can be thought of as a factorized Caughey series that allows for a simple explicit solution for the coefficients of...
