  - The paper to define simple, consistent and robust statistical descriptors for thecalibration of damping in linear and non-linear systems through frequency response in thepresence of variability and uncertainties due to noise and sampling intervals. The workemploys the frequency response of a linear system and a Duffing Oscillator simulatinghardening and softening springs. The Skewness ¿ Kurtosis descriptor was observed to beefficiently calibrating the nature of the system and the extent of damping with robustnessagainst measurement noise and sampling effects. The descriptors allow rapidcomputation and can be applied to experimental data without the requirement ofassuming a specific underlying model. The findings are general and applicable to a verybroad spectrum of linear and non-linear systems and applications.
