RE: How to do modal analysis with damping of material?
You could use as method for extraction
DAMPED or QR DAMPED

RE: How to do modal analysis with damping of material?
I have tried the DAMPED and QR DAMPED method. But the result is so strange, I got no any complex frequency.
I paste the operations here...

RE: How to do modal analysis with damping of material?
I run your input and it seems to work pretty well.
I obtain 30 frequencies (not all are complex) but it's ok.
So, this is my advice:
1) At the beginning of your input add a command that redirect your output to a file:
/output,file_name,extension,path (default to current directory),mode_of_writting (overwriting or append)
but /output,output,out will be enough
List this file and you will see the frequencies (preceding participation factors calculus)
2) Ifyou don't want to write the output in a file when you open "Results summary..." under /post1 you will see that every substep appears twice. First is the real part, second is the imaginary part.
