Abstract: In this research, at first, the natural frequencies of a cracked beam are obtained analytically, then, location and depth of a crack in beam is identified by neural network method. The research is applied on a beam with an open crack for three different boundary conditions. For this purpose, at first, the natural frequencies of the cracked beam are obtained analytically, to get the ex...

The present paper aims at analytically evaluating the natural frequencies of cracked slender masonry elements. problem is dealt with in framework linear perturbation, and small oscillations structure are studied under loaded conditions, after equilibrium for permanent loads has been achieved. A beam element made masonry-like material considered, some explicit expressions beam's fundamental freq...

the paper investigates into the vibrational characteristics of the truck chassis including the natural frequencies and mode shapes. truck chassis forms the structural backbone of a commercial vehicle. when the truck travels along the road, the truck chassis is excited by dynamic forces caused by the road roughness, engine, transmission and more. modal analysis using finite element method (fem) ...

in this paper, a new analytical method is proposed to study the effect of crack and axial load on vibration behavior and stability of the cracked columns. using the local flexibility model, the crack has been simulated by a torsional spring with connecting two segments of column in crack location. by solving governing eigenvalue equation, the effect of crack parameters and axial load on the nat...

In this paper, two kinds of vibrations are considered for a composite Timoshenko rotor: longitudinal-torsional vibration and two plane transverse one. The kinetic and potential energies and virtual work due to the gyroscopic effects are calculated and the set of six governing equations and boundary conditions are derived using Hamilton principle. Differential quadrature method (DQM) is used as ...
