Structural Vibration Frequency Analysis of Beams

Course No. S-3001

Credit: 3 PDH

Course Fee: $86.85 Purchase course

Subject Matter Expert: C. (Raj) Sundararajan, Ph.D., MASCE, FASME

 

Overview

Fundamental natural frequency is an important parameter in structural dynamics analysis and applications. A number of simple formulas for the computation of the fundamental natural frequency of beam vibration under a variety of boundary conditions and loading are presented. Some are approximate formulas and some are exact. An estimate of the error is given for the approximate formulas whenever possible. The formulas presented here are simple enough that the fundamental frequency could be obtained by hand calculation without recourse to computers or finite element analysis. The formulas are demonstrated with nine worked out numerical examples.

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of twenty (20) questions at the end of this course to earn PDH credits.

 

Specific Knowledge or Skill Obtained

This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Compute the fundamental natural frequency of beams carrying one or more concentrated weights
  • Compute the fundamental natural frequency of beams carrying uniformly distributed weight and concentrated weight
  • Determine the effect axial loading on the fundamental frequency
