Figure 14

Complex normalised mode shapes from 09:00-09:10 29/08/2017, presented in their dominant axis, identified from modal analysis (N4SID) and predicted using the rigid-rotor finite element model with the ensemble optimised macrofoundation compliance . Identified mode shapes normalised at their maximum against the corresponding model predicted mode shape. (a) 1st FA. (b) 2nd FA. (c) 3rd FA. (d) 1st SS. (e) 2nd SS. (f) 3rd SS.
