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 complex modal analysis is developed to study the transverse vibration of Timoshenko beams resting on viscoelastic Pasternak foundation. Complex frequency equations and modal function expressions are obtained for pinned-pinned ends. In numerical examples, the characteristics of natural frequencies and decrement coefficients of Timoshenko beams are compared with Euler-Bernoulli beams. The numerical results show that with increase in the length, the natural frequencies of Timoshenko beams are slightly less than Euler-Bernoulli beams, and the decrement coefficients of Timoshenko beams are not constant as that of Euler-Bernoulli beams.

The approximate free vibration characteristics of centrally clamped, variable thickness disks are analyzed by the Rayleigh-Ritz technique. Natural frequencies of transverse vibration are computed, taking into consideration rotational and thermal in-plane stresses as well as purposely induced initial stresses. Initial stresses can significantly raise the minimum disk natural frequency throughout a prescribed rotational and thermal environment. The fundamental mode of disk vibration is one of zero nodal circles and either zero, one, or two nodal diameters, depending upon the disk geometry and the rotational-thermal environment.

Abstract The determination of coupled frequencies of free vibration for beams of nonsymmetric, open cross section is discussed in this paper. Beams with various end conditions, including simple supports, fixed ends and a cantilever, are considered. Results of both exact and approximate analyses are presented. For practical use, a simple approximate formula for determining frequencies of vibration for beams with any end conditions is given. The accuracy of the approximate formula is shown by comparison with results obtained by the exact method. The exact calculations were carried out on an IBM 605 Card Programmed Calculator.

In this paper, some analytical results via extended Galerkin method on free vibration characteristics of an anisotropic composite beam, which is modeled as a nonuniform thin-walled structure with a chordwise asymmetric closed cross-section and corrected the warping functions, are newly presented. For this study, nonclassical parameters such as warping restraint, transverse shear flexibility, and structural couplings induced by two special configurations, such as circumferentially uniform stiffness (CUS) and circumferentially asymmetric stiffness (CAS), are incorporated. And also, design parameters of the beam associated with preset angles, pretwist angles, taper ratios, and section ratios are additionally investigated. The results of this study could play an important role in more efficient designs of composite thin-walled beams.

AbstractIn recent years, studies on the development of new and advanced composite materials have been increasing. Among these new technological products, Fiber Metal Laminates (FML), and hybrid structures made of aluminium, carbon, glass or aramid fiber, are preferred especially in the aircraft industry due to their high performance. Therefore, free vibration analysis is necessary for the design process of such structures. In this study, the vibration characteristics of FML for clamped-free boundary conditions were investigated experimentally and numerically. Firstly, numerical results were obtained using Finite Element Method (FEM) and then these results were compared with the experimental results. It was seen that the numerical results were in good agreement with the experimental results. As the theoretical model was justified, the effects of various parameters such as number of layers, fiber orientations, and aluminium layer thickness on the in-plane vibration characteristics of the FML straight beam were analysed using FEM. Thus, most important parameters affecting the vibration characteristics of the hybrid structures were determined.
