Abstract
Identification of modal parameters in the time domain offers an attractive alternative to the more classical approaches in the frequency domain. The elimination of the need to perform frequency transformation on the inputs and responses and the associated errors of leakage, truncation, frequency resolution and lengthy time records, among other errors, enhances the accuracy and practicality of the time domain approaches.
