✦ Synopsis
An analytical solution is presented for the natural frequencies, mode shapes and orthogonality condition, of a free}free beam with large o!-set masses connected to the beam by torsion springs. Results are given for a range of masses with various "xed orientations and the validity of the method is con"rmed against established results for natural frequencies of beams with "ve di!erent boundary conditions. The study lays the foundation for investigations into the dynamics and vibration control of multi-link articulated systems such as the Space Shuttle Remote Manipulator.

Natural frequencies of a symmetrically laminated composite beam with a mass at the free end are determined. The equations of motion for the laminated beam are derived accounting for the Poisson effect, rotary inertia and transverse shear deformation. Exact solutions are presented to demonstrate the
The classical inverse sensitivity approach was applied. In the presented application, the deviations between analytical and measured natural frequencies and mode shapes were minimised to update user selected stiffness, mass and geometric parameters. The selection of the updating parameters was based
For a beam carrying n spring}mass systems, if the left side and right side of each attaching point and each end of the beam are regarded as nodes, then considering the compatibility of deformations and the equilibrium of forces between the two adjacent beam segments at each attaching point and incor
