0046. Modal analysis of a simple beam. Vibration frequency and period calculator

This app offers users the ability to calculate the circular frequency, linear frequency, and natural vibration period of a simple supported beam. Unlike many other calculators, this app uses an analytical approach that provides dynamic characteristics of the beam for any form of vibration, as opposed to a discrete formulation.

Application features

This app supports arbitrary units of measurement, allowing users to work with their preferred measurements. Additionally, the application allows for control of input data, meaning that users can easily adjust and refine their calculations. The app works with any material and geometry of the beam, as long as the user knows the modulus of elasticity and cross-sectional moment of inertia. Furthermore, users can specify the total mass of the beam or the distributed mass.

Units of measurement

The compact layout of the application window makes it easy to use, and it supports a wide range of units of measurement for different variables such as length, concentrated mass, distributed mass, modulus of elasticity of the material, and cross-sectional moment of inertia. For a complete list of all units of measurement for TechEditor, users can refer to the documentation provided.

Overall, the Modal Analysis of a Simple Beam Vibration Frequency and Period Calculator is an indispensable tool for engineers who need to work with beam vibrations.
