What is a distinguishing feature of the natural frequencies of a free-free bar? All frequencies are zero The stiffness matrix becomes non-symmetric The mode shapes are zero at both ends The first natural frequency is zero due to rigid body motion
Added by Michael P.
Step 1
Step 1: A free-free bar has no constraints at its ends, so it can undergo rigid body motions (translations and rotation) without any deformation. Show more…

Deal with transverse vibrations of the uniform beam of this section, but with various end conditions. In each case show that the natural frequencies are given by the formula in Eq. (19), with $\left\{\beta_{n}\right\}_{1}^{\infty}$ being the positive roots of the given frequency equation. Recall that $y=y^{\prime}=0$ at a fixed end, $y=y^{\prime \prime}=0$ at a hinged end, and $y^{\prime \prime}=y^{(3)}=0$ at a free end (primes denote derivatives with respect to $x$ ). The ends at $x=0$ and $x=L$ are both hinged; the frequency equation is $\sin x=0$, so that $\beta_{n}=n \pi$.

Derive the frequency equation for the transverse vibration of a uniform beam resting on the springs at both ends, as shown in the figure below.The springs can deflect vertically only and the beam is in the horizontal position p.E,A,1 For this problem, you do not have to find the determinant that would yield the frequency equation. You only need to apply the four boundary equations and get the four C,C2,C3,and c4. It is the determinant of this 4 x 4 matrix that yields the frequency equation.
