Abstract Researches show that there exists a modal transformation matrix which is similar to that of the fixed interface method in form but slightly different from that in content. Using the constrained modes and normal modes or Lanczos vectors, a new modal transformation developed from hybrid method is given, in which the interface forces are replaced by interface displacements. The first synthesis equations are assembled easily as with the fixed interface method, yet the interface coordinates can be further eliminated as with the free-interface method. The new method unifies the fixed- and free-interface methods as well as hybrid method,permitting easy implementation of the Lanczos vectors to replace normal modes so that only static modes are calculated. The dynamic substructure method thus becomes more flexible and efficient. This reveals the interrelations of various dynamic substructure methods. New formula for modal analysis and modal synthesis are developed and three examples are given for illustration.
