A new method is proposed for stiffness-damping simultaneous identification in a building structure when responses are recorded at only two stories, i.e. the base and the second floor. Uniqueness of stiffness and damping is guaranteed if the transfer function of the absolute acceleration (or displacement) at the second floor rela.. Read More
