β¦ Synopsis
Thin walled box sections are used as load bearing members in various industries, aircraft structures and marine vessels. To avoid undesirable effects of the surrounding vibration environment, the structure can be designed to have natural frequency removed from the range of exciting frequency or by introducing damping. In the present study the vibration and damping behaviour of layered composite box beams is analysed using the finite element method. The finite element formulation is based on first order shear deformation theory, which takes shear deformation of the beam into consideration. The effect of the number of layers, end conditions and fiber angle on frequency and loss factor is studied for two materials, namely, graphite-epoxy and glass-epoxy.

A new displacement-based ΓΏnite element is developed for thin-walled box beams. Unlike the existing elements, dealing with either static problems alone or dynamic problems only with the additional consideration of warping, the present element is useful for both static and dynamic analyses with the co
In this paper, a theoretical model is developed for the dynamic analysis of composite thin-walled beams with open or closed cross-sections. The present model incorporates, in a full form, the shear flexibility (bending and warping shear) as well as a state of initial stresses. This allows to study t
An analytical method for determining natural frequencies and mode shapes of the torsional vibration of continuous beams with thin-walled cross-section is developed by using a general solution of the di!erential equation of motion based on Vlasov's beam theory. This method takes into account the e!ec
