Further work

• Natural frequencies can be estimated using identified FRFs. Smoothing should be applied to reduce noise

• Both theoretical or measured inputs can be used to identified FRFs

• Damping estimation of the first mode can be obtained by the half power method, however, comprehensive approach via LSCF should be used

• Next work will be based on the LSCF method for estimating damping ratios
