Good Agreement

A method for free vibration of 3D space frame structures employing transfer dynamic stiffness matrix (TDSM) method based on Euler–Bernoulli beam theory is developed in this paper. The exact TDSM of each member is assembled to obtain the system matrix that is frequency dependent. All free vibration eigensolutions including coincident roots for the characteristic equation can be obtained to any desired accuracy using the algorithm developed by Wittrick and Williams (1971, “A General Algorithm for Computing Natural Frequencies of Elastic Structures,” Q. J. Mech. Appl. Math., 24, pp. 263–284). Exact eigenfunction of structures can then be computed using the dynamic shape function and the corresponding eigenvector. The results showed good agreement with those computed by finite element method.

In this study, the dynamic stiffness method is employed for the free vibration analysis of helical springs. This work gives the exact solutions for the natural frequencies of helical beams having arbitrary shapes, such as conical, hyperboloidal, and barrel. Both the cross-section dimensions and the shape of the beam can vary along the axis of the curved member as polynomial expressions. The problem is described by six differential equations. These are second order equations with variable coefficients, with six unknown displacements, three translations, and three rotations at every point along the member. The proposed solution is based on a new finite-element method for deriving the exact dynamic stiffness matrix for the member, including the effects of the axial and the shear deformations and the rotational inertia effects for any desired precision. The natural frequencies are found as the frequencies that cause the determinant of the dynamic stiffness matrix to become zero. Then the mode shape for every natural frequency is found. Examples are given for beams and helical springs with different shape, which can vary along the axis of the member. It is shown that the present numerical results agree well with previously published numerical and experimental results.

The Dynamic Stiffness Method (DSM) is used to analyse the free vibration characteristics of a rotating uniform Shear beam. Starting from the kinetic and strain energy expressions, the Hamilton’s principle is used to obtain the governing differential equations of motion and the natural boundary conditions. The two equations are solved simultaneously and expressed each in terms of displacement and slope only. The Frobenius power series solution is applied to solve the equations and the resulting solutions are also expressed in terms of four independent solutions. Applying the appropriate boundary conditions, the Dynamic Stiffness Matrix is assembled. The natural frequencies of vibration using the DSM are computed by employing the in-built root finding algorithm in Mathematica as well as by implementing the Wittrick-Williams algorithm in a numerical routine in Mathematica. The results obtained using the DSM are presented in tabular and graphical forms and are compared with results obtained using the Timoshenko and the Bernoulli-Euler theories.

Dynamic Stiffness Matrix

The free vibration of multistepped nanobeams is studied using the dynamic stiffness matrix method. The beam analysis is based on the Bernoulli–Euler theory, and the nanoscale analysis is based on the Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity theory. The nanobeam is attached to linear and rotational elastic supports at the start, end, and intermediate boundary conditions. The effect of the nonlocal parameter, boundary conditions, and step ratios on the nanobeam natural frequency is investigated. The results of the dynamic stiffness matrix methods are validated by comparing selected cases with the literature, which give excellent agreement with those literatures. The results show that the dimensionless natural frequency parameter is inversely proportional to the nonlocal parameters except in the first mode for clamped-free boundary conditions. Also, the gap between every two consecutive modes decreases with the increasing of the nonlocal parameter.

Analytical Technique

The coupled free vibration analysis of the thin-walled laminated composite I-beams with bisymmetric and monosymmetric cross sections considering shear effects is developed. The laminated composite beam takes into account the transverse shear and the restrained warping induced shear deformation based on the first-order shear deformation beam theory. The analytical technique is used to derive the constitutive equations and the equations of motion of the beam in a systematic manner considering all deformations and their mutual couplings. The explicit expressions for displacement parameters are presented by applying the power series expansions of displacement components to simultaneous ordinary differential equations. Finally, the dynamic stiffness matrix is determined using the force–displacement relationships. In addition, for comparison, a finite beam element with two-nodes and fourteen-degrees-of-freedom is presented to solve the equations of motion. The performance of the dynamic stiffness matrix developed by study is tested through the solutions of numerical examples and the obtained results are compared with results available in literature and the detailed three-dimensional analysis results using the shell elements of ABAQUS. The vibrational behavior and the effect of shear deformation are investigated with respect to the modulus ratios and the fiber angle change.
