I guess the Harris handbook of noise and vibration is a good start...The Beranek should be close to you too...

Harris and Beranek are excellent, but they WON'T tell you where to put the accelerometers.

mzl's questions are very good, but are also very hard to answer. Accelerometers are usuallly placed in a fairly arbitrary fashion, towards the outer spatial limit of each component or sub-component.

The test data should be reduced to a set of mode shapes, frequencies, and damping values. This will allow direct comparison wih your FEA results (apart from the damping)

Modifying your FE model for good correlation: (1) DISCARD ALL RIGID ELEMENTS.

(2) do your statics work?

(3) are your masses OK?

You get a star for that. One of the graphs looks a bit sus, but it is great to see real data on the net, and the explanations are grouse. Cheers
