Natural Frequencies – How a Mechanical

Examples

• Ball on a string • Beam(s)

• For a simple mechanical systems it is relatively easy to systematically effect a change in the natural frequency.

Beam Vibration Narrow Beam

How would we change the frequency of vibration?

Beam Vibration Narrow Beam

Narrow Beam - Natural Frequency = 5.6 Hz Narrow and Short Beam - Natural Frequency = 11.7 Hz Wide Beam - Natural Frequency = 7.8 Hz

Equations of Motion

• M K are the natural frequencies of vibration (squared).

• The Eigenvectors of M K are the mode shapes (the relative displacement of each degree of freedom)

Truss Structure

Truss Structures

• Rigid beams – Axial forces only

• – Concentric joints – Welded or bolted

• Bridges, towers, exoskeletons

Pin-connected

16

A truss has large number of natural frequencies and complex motion.

Half of the mass of Each Link is assumed to sit at a node. (A function of Areas)

Link Stiffness is a function of Length, Area, density

Truss Approximation

Step 0. Complex (Continuous) Mechanical Structure

Continuous Mechanical System –

31

Step 1. Apply a Mesh (Truss) to the Mechanical Structure

Step 2. Form Local Regions around ‘Nodes’ of the Mesh

32

Step 3. Use Local Regions around ‘Nodes’ to approximate Node Mass (mi) ij)

All of this mass is applied to the contained node.
