Abstract
In this chapter we describe undamped and modally damped systems. They are wholly explained by the knowledge of the mass and the stiffness matrix. This is the broadly known case and we shall outline it here, not only because it is an important special case, but because it is often used as a starting position in the analysis of general damped systems.
