In this paper, we describe a numerical method for determining the location of a crack in a beam of varying depth when the lowest three natural frequencies of the cracked beam are known. The crack is modelled as a rotational spring and graphs of spring sti!ness versus crack location are plotted for e
A new simpli"ed approach to modelling cracks in beams undergoing transverse vibration is presented. The modelling approach uses Euler}Bernoulli beam elements with small modi"cations to the local #exibility in the vicinity of cracks. This crack model is then used to estimate the crack locations and s
Numerical and experimental studies for crack detection in beam employing transverse impact are presented. In the numerical study, a beam model of wave propagation is developed to calculate the time history of beam response before, over and after the crack region. It is expected that the resulting wa
