ARTeMIS Modal is produced in three versions and the key features are listed below. All versions have estimators for Operational Modal Analysis (OMA) and Operating Deflection Shapes (ODS). As optional features for all versions are the Data Acquisition plugin, allowing direct control of selected data acquisition hardware, and the Experimental Modal Analysis plugin, allowing classical input/output modal analysis. If both the data acquisition plugin and the experimental modal analysis plugin are available, then it is possible to run the Impace Testing module.
ARTeMIS Modal Basic
This is the basic version having a frequency domain method for Operational Modal Analysis, and optionally direct data acquisition support and two frequency domain methods for Experimental Modal Analysis. Specifically it contains the following tasks and features:
- Prepare Geometry Task.
- Import/modify existing geometry.
- Create geometry from scratch using interactive tools.
- Manage Measurements Task.
- Import/merge measurements file into single or multiple test setups.
- View imported measurements channel by channel.
- Edit imported measurements. Truncation, differentiation or integration.
- Connect/disconnect channels and Test Setups.
- Assign DOF Information Task.
- Link channels with geometry nodes and directions.
- Link using drag-and-drop or by direct editing.
- Automatic identification of reference channels.
- Easy replication of test setups and reference channels in case of multiple test setup testing.
- Data Acquisition Task.
- Direct control with selected hardware from National Instruments.1
- Direct control with selected hardware from SINUS Messtechnik.2
- Experimental Modal Analysis Impact Testing Module.3
- Prepare Data Task.
- Configure all preprocessing of measurements.
- Repair measurements having severe outliers.
- View processed data of channels and Test Setups.
- Compare processed data of reference channels.
- Estimation Task.
- Report Task.
- Easy selection of graphics and tables.
- Seamless integration - Microsoft® Office 2000, XP, 2003, 2007, 2010 and 2016 32bit/64bit.
- Generate Word documents and Power Point presentations.
- Predefined standard templates.
ARTeMIS Modal Standard
This is the mid-size version that, besides all the tasks and features of the Basic version above, also has the following additional tasks and features:
- Prepare Data Task.
- Estimation Task.
- Validation Task.
- Overlaid mode shapes animation.
- Mode shapes difference animation.
- Mode shapes side-by-side / top-bottom animation.
- Modal Assurance Criterion.
- Comparison between estimated and imported modes.
- Frequency versus Damping diagrams.
ARTeMIS Modal Pro
The ultimate tool having all the features developed over the last two decades. It has up to eight operational modal analysis methods and supports several plugins for e.g. automatic file upload, automatic modal estimation and damage detection. Besides all the tasks and features of the Basic and Standard versions above, this version has the following additional tasks and features:
- Prepare Data Task.
- Peak Reduction. Reduce or eliminate harmonic peaks and/or unwanted modes.
- Estimation Task.
- Optional Plugin Modules for Structural Health Monitoring.
- Data Manager Base Module including Historical Measurement Statistics and 3D Data View.
- Damage Detection, Classic and Robust methods as well as unifying Hotelling Control Chart.
- Modal Parameter History including automatic mode tracking and tracked modes export.
- Interstorey Drift Analysis. Estimation of relative interstorey drift in multiple locations.
- Automatic File Upload. Upload files automatically from a designated folder and optionally perform modal analysis and damage detection.
