Dear fmk,
is it possible to get modal mass participation ratios after an eigen analysis?

You need to record the mode shapes and print the mass matrix. Then you can compute the modal mass participation ratio and any other quantity by post-processing. please let me know if you have any questions about the details.

Hi Selim

I have extracted mass matrix and mode shapes. How can I find the equation number corresponding to nodes' DOFs of mode shapes? Please advise.
