β¦ Synopsis
The viability of adapting the Timoshenko beam equations to a sandwich configuration is considered. These equations are utilised for modal analysis of solid as well as sandwich beams, including beams with a mass attached at the mid-span. Theoretical and experimental results regarding beam frequencies and mode shapes are presented.

The purpose of this letter is to report the existence of a mode of linear vibration in Timoshenko's beam theory which has escaped attention in the literature. In particular, for various boundary conditions, a condition in terms of the material and geometric parameters of the beam for its existence i
