| Abstract | Classical structural identification procedures, which use transfer functions, require the knowledge or a reliable measure of the forcing actions. This has led to the use of controlled input signals obtained through excitation instrumentation whose production may prove very costly. Some newly developed techniques exploit the natural excitation that any structure is subjected to, and therefore do no require any special instrumentation. Some of them are based on an analysis of the response signal in the time domain and on the determination of a time series approximating its evolution through the use of appropriate statistical models, whilst some others use the concept of a random decrement function to extend the applicability domain of techniques that originally had been designed to analyse free-decay response signals. The techniques previously mentioned typically require the hypothesis of stationarity, though the field of civil engineering excitations is generally non-stationary. This consideration prompted some proposals for new identification methods designed to handle these types of non-stationary excitation, which are based on special amplitude and phase estimators defined in the time-frequency domain. The advantage of these methods is that identification is based solely on the properties of the modal signals, that are dealt with as modulated harmonics. This paper briefly summarises the hypotheses and theories that constitute the basis of the main "output-only" techniques. The problems usually encountered in this kind of identification are stated and critically discussed. The final part of the paper reports a few numerical simulations. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
