The inverse eigenvalue problem of constructing symmetric positive semidefinite matrixD written as D ≥ 0 and real-valued skew-symmetric matrix G i.e., G −G of order n for the quadratic pencilQ λ : λMa λ D G Ka, whereMa > 0,Ka ≥ 0 are given analytical mass and stiffness matrices, so that Q λ has a prescribed subset of eigenvalues and eigenvectors, is considered. Necessary and sufficient condition...
