Fundamental Frequencies

A review of the literature reveals that information regarding fundamental frequencies and mode shapes of shallow laminated composite hypar shells with practical civil engineering boundary conditions is not available. The present investigation aims to fill this gap by applying an eight-noded isoparametric shell element as the tool. Numerical experiments are carried out for different parametric variations including boundary conditions and stacking orders to obtain the fundamental frequencies and mode shapes. Some of the results are used for validating the correctness of the present approach by comparing with the existing benchmark, while the other results are studied meticulously to extract a set of meaningful conclusions regarding the free vibration characteristics of composite shallow hypar shells.

Structural Applications

Since composite materials such as laminated composite plates have high specific strength and high structural efficiency, they have been usedin many structural applications. It is therefore very important to make clear the vibration characteristics of the laminated plates for the designand the structural analysis. Especially, the vibration characteristics of the laminated plates with attached mass are essential. However, wecannot find the theoretical or experimental approaches for the free vibration of laminated plates with attached mass. In the present study, theexperimental and numerical approaches are applied to the free vibration of cantilevered symmetrically laminated plates with attached mass.First, by applying the experimental modal analysis technique to the cantilevered symmetrically laminated plates with attached mass, thenatural frequencies and mode shapes of the plates are obtained. Next, the natural frequencies and mode shapes of the cantileveredsymmetrically laminated plates with attached mass are calculated by Finite Element Method (FEM). Finally, from the experimental andnumerical results, the effect of the moment of inertia of the attached mass to the natural frequencies and mode shapes of the cantileveredsymmetrically laminated plates are clarified.
