Abstract
A typical actuator and sensor location problem for structural testing can be described as follows. The structural test plan is based on the available information on the structure itself, on disturbances acting on the structure, and on the expected structural performance. The first information is typically in the form of a structural finite-element model. The disturbance information includes disturbance location and disturbance spectral contents. The structure performance is commonly evaluated through the displacements or accelerations at certain structural locations.
