Abstract This paper presents a hybrid experimental-numerical method for studying dynamic characteristic of vibrating structures. A continuous structure is first lumped into a number of discrete elements and its influence coefficients are measured by holographic interferometry. The eigen values and eigen vectors of the lumped system are then calculated. A major adavantage of the hybrid method is that it is not necessary to know material properties and idealize the boundary conditions, as the measured influcence coefficients will automatically reflect the real boundary and the material behaviors.
