Summary:
The talk will first discuss the fundamental concepts of CMA, where the quantities such as eigenvectors, eigenvalues, modal significance, modal excitation coefficients and the modal weighting coefficients will be introduced. Thereafter, a stepby-step overview will be provided for the mode-tracking algorithm that is implemented in our solver. The efficiency of our technique will be illustrated at the hand of various practical examples.
