Abstract
Modal synthesis is a technical term closely related to the development of the finite element technique. Especially in dealing with large structural systems with some thousand physical degrees of freedom, modal synthesis has proved to be an efficient means to reduce computational errors and to minimize computer costs by decomposing the system into several subsystems, each of which is analyzed separately. Based on the results of these component analyses the subsystems can be brought together again to the complete system by means of modal synthesis methods.
