Modal Analysis Computations

This document summarizes modal analysis computations in MATLAB and manually. It shows the computation of stiffness and mass matrices, eigendecomposition to find natural frequencies and mode shapes. The first three natural frequencies are 0.0506 Hz, 0.2091 Hz, and 0.3306 Hz.
