The aim of the present work is to investigate the use of Macro Fiber Composite (MFC) actuator for modal analysis of composite plate. Efficiency of application of MFC as an actuator in comparison with the impact hammer, PZT actuator and modal shaker has been investigated. POLYTEC laser Vibrometer operating on the Doppler principle and measuring back-scattered light from a vibrating panel has been used to determine its vibration velocity and displacement. Modal analysis is subsequently applied to extract natural frequencies and mode shapes.
