The paper develops a "nite element scheme for computing the eigensystem for a cracked beam for di!erent degrees of closure. Previous work in the authors' laboratories has indicated that the ability to extend the use of mode superposition to model breathing conditions in the crack zone would overcome

The effect of crack depth on the transverse vibrational characteristics of a prestressed fixed-fixed beam is investigated. The natural frequency of the system is obtained by modal analysis. The coupling effect between the crack depth and the axial load on the natural frequency of the system is inves
It is well known that the presence of the delamination in a composite laminated beam (CLB) introduces a local flexibility which changes the dynamic characteristics of the structure. The finite element method is used for modelling the CLB to obtain the effect of the delamination length and its starti
