Subspace Identification Method

A system identification method for estimating natural frequencies is proposed. This method developed based on the stochastic subspace identification method can identify modal parameters of structures in operating conditions with harmonic components in excitation. It benefits wind turbine tower structural health assessment because classical operational modal analysis methods can fail as periodic rotation excitation from a turbine introduces strong harmonic disturbance to tower structure response data. The effectiveness, accuracy and robustness of the proposed method were numerically investigated and verified through a lumped-mass system model.
