Based on a component mode synthesis approach, a model-order-reduction method for linear structures with arbitrary linear damping has been developed. Projection matrices are introduced to make the method applicable to systems having rigid-body freedom. To test the method, eigenvalues of a reduced-order model of a free-free beam with nonproportional damping were compared to exact eigenvalues and to eigenvalues obtained using two other model-reduction strategies. The present model-reduction strategy proved to be decidedly superior.
