For the nonlinear structures such as traverse and mesh spanning structure, it is very difficult to analyze the traditional calculation method. The initial shape of the structure is determined by the finite element method and the accuracy of the model is verified. Based on this model, the natural frequencies and vibration modes of the structure are analyzed and determined, which can provide reference for transient dynamic analysis.

Tubular structural systems appear in many industrial applications, such as heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems, which are responsible for making any enclosed environment remain within a temperature, humidity, and cleanliness range. This kind of system has its applications in the internal environmental comfort of industrial spaces, buildings, and vehicles. Several of these spaces have industrial processes that generate high sound frequencies and mechanical vibrations that need to be adequately controlled to meet both environmental and health norms. With the intention to analyze the structural vibration of tubular systems, the modal analysis technique is a classical methodology for the extraction of natural frequencies and vibration modes. Among the various techniques of modal analysis, numerical methodologies such as the finite element method, and also analytical methodologies such as the Component Mode Synthesis (CMS) can be found. CMS is one of the leading modeling tools for complex systems that are applied to large systems. The method uses a modal superset and consists of separately modeling individual components of a structure and coupling them into a single system. The objective of this work is to demonstrate the application of the CMS technique through the estimation of natural frequencies and vibration modes in a simplified tubular structural system formed by two substructures, using MATLAB and ANSYS. The validation of the results was done through numerical modeling using the finite element method using and ANSYS software. The results obtained were satisfactory, thus demonstrating the feasibility of applying the CMS technique to an analysis of structural vibration in tubular structural systems.

In order to obtain the vibration characteristics of the turbocharger rotor system, its natural frequencies and vibration modes are approached by the experimental method and the finite element method. The modal parameters are obtained by modal tests, and are calculated by the finite element method with the software ANSYS8.0 at the meantime. The influence is approached mainly for the oil film stiffness of the floating-ring bearings and the rotor’s rotating speed. The FEM result is certificate compared with the modal test result. The influence of the rotating speed is greater on the rotor natural frequency than that of the bearing stiffness. It provides the theoretical basis for turbocharger’s vibration control and structure improve.

Abstract This article examines numerically the flexibility influence of support beams in static response and dynamic properties of a symmetric plate formed by massive slabs of reinforced concrete in elastic linear regime, using the Finite Element Method. In the static response the variation of bending mo-ments and displacements are evaluated, which depend on the relationship between the flexibility of the slab and the beam. The evaluation of dynamic properties is held in undamped free vibration, through which the vibration modes and the values of the natural frequencies is obtained, which are compared with the limits of the Brazilian standard code for design of concrete structures. Results show that the response may show great variation due to the change in the relationship between bending stiffness of the slabs and the beams.

The natural frequencies of circular saws limit the operating speeds of the saws. Current industry methods of increasing natural frequency include pretensioning, where plastic deformation is induced into the saw. To better model the saw, the finite element model is compared to current software for steel saws; C-SAW, a software program that calculates frequencies for stiffened circular saws. Using C-SAW and the finite element method the results are compared and the finite element method is validated for steel saws.

Analytical, experimental and numerical results of determination of natural frequencies and forms of oscillations of reinforced concrete and fiber concrete beams are given. Modern analytical, numerical and experimental methods of studying the dynamics of reinforced concrete and fiber concrete beams are analyzed. The problem of determining the natural frequencies and forms of oscillations of reinforced concrete and fiber concrete beams at the initial modulus of elasticity and taking into account the nonlinear diagram of deformation of materials is solved analytically. Computer modeling of the considered constructions in four software complexes is done and the technique of their modal analysis on the basis of the finite element method is developed. Experimental researches of free oscillations of the considered designs and the comparative analysis of all received results are carried out. It is established that all involved complexes determine the imaginary frequency and imaginary form of oscillations. The frequency spectrum calculated by the finite element method is approximately 4% lower than that calculated analytically; the results of the calculation in SOFiSTiK differ by 2% from the results obtained in the PC LIRA; the discrepancy with the experimental data reaches 20%, and all frequencies calculated experimentally, greater than the frequencies calculated analytically or by the finite element method. This rather significant discrepancy is explained, according to the authors, by the incorrectness of the used dynamic model of the reinforced beam. The classical dynamics of structures is known to be based on the theory of linear differential equations, and the oscillations of structures are considered in relation to the unstressed initial state. It is obvious that in the study of free and forced oscillations of reinforced concrete building structures such an approach is unsuitable because they are physically nonlinear systems. The concept of determining the nonlinear terms of these equations is practically not studied. Numerous experimental researches and computer modeling for the purpose of qualitative and quantitative detection of all factors influencing a spectrum of natural frequencies of fluctuations are necessary here.

A perturbation approach, coupled with the adjoint concept, is used to derive an analytic expression for the natural frequencies of a nearly rectangular membrane. The method is applied for a rectangular membrane with a semicircle at one of the boundaries. The fundamental natural frequency results for this configuration are presented and compared with results from a finite-element method and results from an approximate Galerkin method. The agreement between the fundamental natural frequencies calculated with the perturbation approach and those calculated with the finite-element method improves as the radius of the semicircle decreases and as the semicircle location becomes more eccentric.

The finite element method is applied to the calculation of the deflection under a uniformly distributed load and the natural frequencies of the rhombic cantilever plate. This has required the derivation of stiffness and inertia matrices for a plate element of parallelogrammic planform. Although, in common with the work of past investigators, the accuracy of the results decreases with increase in skew angle it is shown that the method is adequate for angles up to about 45°.

This paper concerns the vibrational behavior of concentric double-walled and triple-walled carbon and boron nitride nanotubes using the finite element method. Armchair and zigzag nanotubes with different lengths and diameters are considered. Moreover, different boundary conditions are applied on the nanotubes. It is observed that in double-walled nanotubes, when the inner and outer layers are respectively from boron nitride and carbon, the frequencies are larger than those in the reverse arrangement. Investigating the effect of diameter on the first 10 natural frequencies of double-walled and triple-walled nanotubes showed that nanotubes with larger diameters possess smaller frequencies. The effect of diameter is more significant for higher modes. Finally, comparisons are made between the vibrational behavior of concentric carbon and boron nitride double-walled and triple-walled nanotubes. Considering the effect of vacancy defect on the vibrational characteristics of the nanotubes revealed that when all of the walls of the nanotubes are defective, the largest diminish occurs for the fundamental natural frequencies.
