This paper presents a combined experimental and numerical study of free vibration of industry-driven woven fiber glass/epoxy (G/E) composite plates with delamination. Using the first-order shear deformation theory, an eight-noded two-dimensional quadratic isoparametric element was developed, which has five degrees of freedom per node. In the experimental study, the influence of various parameters such as the delamination size, boundary conditions, fiber orientations, number of layers, and aspect ratio on the natural frequencies of delaminated composite plates are investigated. Comparison of the numerical results with experimental ones shows good agreement. Fundamental natural frequencies are found to decrease with the increase in the delamination size and fiber orientation and increases with the increase in the number of layers and aspect ratio of delaminated composite plates. The natural frequency of the delaminated composite plate varies significantly for different boundary conditions.

In the far north, low temperatures and atmospheric icing are a major danger for the safe operation of wind turbines. It can cause several problems in fatigue loads, the balance of the rotor and aerodynamics. With the aim of improving the rigidity of the wind turbine blade, composite materials are currently being used. A numerical work aims to evaluate the effect of ice on composite blades and to determine the most adequate material under icing conditions. Different ice thicknesses are considered in the lower part of the blade. In this paper, modal analysis is performed to obtain the natural frequencies and corresponding mode shapes of the structure. This analysis is elaborated using the finite element method (FEM) computer program through ABAQUS software. The results have laid that the natural frequencies of the blade varied according to the material and thickness of ice and that there is no resonance phenomenon.

The paper deals with correlation between natural frequencies of two steel thin-walled columns and the corresponding applied load. The structures are made of cold-formed lipped channel sections. The columns lengths were assumed to follow two buckling patterns – global flexural and flexural-torsional buckling. In the thicker structure two material models were considered – linearly-elastic and elastic-perfectly plastic. Numerical computations cover dynamic eigenvalue problem, linear buckling and geometrically (and materially) non-linear analysis. The correlation between squares of natural frequencies and the applied load is linear in both columns. The first natural frequencies drop to zero due to structural buckling. This method, called the Vibration Correlation Technique, allows to predict buckling loads on the basis of measured vibration frequencies of the structures. Plasticity does not affect the corresponding curves – the use of the presented technique is limited to the structures exhibiting elastic buckling behaviour.

Free-vibration characteristics of a thin-walled, open cross-section beam, with unconstrained damping layers at the flanges, are investigated. Both uncoupled transverse vibration and the coupled bending-torsion oscillations, of a beam of a top-hat section, are considered. Numerical results are presented for natural frequencies and modal loss factors of simply supported and clamped-clamped beams.

The methods of direct perturbation for finite element models of thin-walled engineering constructions for sensitivity analysis of their strength, stiffness and dynamic characteristics to the change in their thickness are proposed. The approach for prediction of distribution for natural frequencies migration as result of change in their thickness are presented. The applicability of the linearized models to determine displacements, stresses and natural frequencies slightly thinned design compared to the nominal (original) are shown. The examples of test problems are given.

Vibration characteristics of the thin-walled cylindrical pipe are affected by the liquid within the pipe. The natural frequencies and vibration modes of the pipe without liquid are analyzed by the theory of beam bending vibration and finite element model, which is based on the Timoshenko beam model. The first three natural frequencies and vibration modes of the pipe with or without liquid are acquired by experiments. As shown in the experiment results, the natural frequencies of the containing liquid pipe are lower than the natural frequencies of the pipe without liquid.
