Modal Vectors from the System Matrix 南臺科技大學 STUST The evaluation of modal vectors is very useful in relating measured frequency response function data to the system modal vectors. The residues of a frequency response function for a particular pole ( r ) are directly related to the elements of a modal vector. Also, the symmetry of the adjoint matrix is the justification for not needing to evaluate the complete frequency response function matrix.
