(b) FEA mode shape participation in the ODS’s Experimental vibration data always includes bothreal world boundary conditions andreal-world damping. It was shown in the first example that complex ODS data can be accurately decomposed and expanded using the normal mode shapes of the bearing blocks and base plate of a rotating machine. These normal mode shapes were derived from a relatively simple FEA model with free-free boundary conditions and no damping. Normal modes can be used to expandcomplex vibration databecause themodal participation factors used to decompose and expand the complex data are also complex valued. In the second example, normal mode shapes were used to decompose and expand real valued time waveforms. Curve fitting FEA mode shapes to this data yielded an unexpected participation of the mode shapes when two In-Phase sine wave forcing functions were applied to the top two corners of the Jim Beam structure.
