instant t=0, it becomes<br />

where C is the viscous <strong>damping</strong> matrix, which can be written as<br />

where L i ∈ R n×n is a matrix which indicates the location of the i th of p different viscous<br />

In the case of an absolute dashpot connecting one degree of freedom (e.g. degree-of-freedom<br />
2, see figure 1) of the structure to the ground, L i takes the <strong>for</strong>m<br />

In this case the pattern approach does not help the reduction of the number of unknowns,<br />
but helps a systematic procedure to define the <strong>damping</strong> sources in an automated way.<br />
