What is Effective Modal Mass and Participation Factors about?

This document discusses effective modal mass and modal participation factors for analyzing multi-degree-of-freedom vibration systems using finite element analysis. It defines effective modal mass as a method to determine how significant a vibration mode is and how readily it can be excited by base excitation. It provides equations to calculate the effective modal mass and modal participation factors from the mass and stiffness matrices. An example calculation is shown for a simple two-degree-of-freedom syst
