This study is based on cracks that occurred in metal beams obtained under controlled fatigue-crack propagation. The beams were clamped in a heavy vise and struck in order to obtain a clean impulse modal response. Spectrograms of the free-decay responses showed a time drift of the frequency and dampi

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
A detailed study has been conducted on the effect of different types of variations of thickness profiles on the amplitudes of deflection and the dynamic bending stress of a cantilever beam under a point harmonic load. The response has been calculated for excitation frequencies corresponding to the f
Structures are weakened by cracks. When the crack size increases in course of time, the structure becomes weaker than its previous condition. Finally, the structure may breakdown due to a minute crack. Therefore, crack detection and classification is a very important issue. In this study, free and f
