Analytical and finite element solutions of free and forced vibration of unrestrained and braced thin-walled beams

Résumé

In this article, vibration of thin-walled beams with arbitrary open cross-section shape is investigated. Based on the beam element model accounting for warping and flexural–torsional coupling, analytical solutions for different boundary conditions are derived for higher free vibration modes in bending, torsion and flexural–torsional coupled modes. In the model, the effects of rotational inertial kinematic terms are considered. The finite element approach of the model is also investigated. Three-dimensional beams with seven degrees of freedom per node are adopted in the mesh process. Free vibration and forced vibration analyses are possible. In forced vibration, the behaviour of the beams is studied in the frequency domain using the steady-state method (modal analysis). Damping is considered using the Rayleigh model. The model is validated by comparing the results to benchmark solutions found in the literature and to other recent numerical and experimental results. Additional finite element simulations are performed by means of commercial softwares (Abaqus and Adina). In slender unrestrained beams, the vibration behaviour is predominated by torsion and lateral bending modes. In design, recourse to braces is a good compromise. This solution is discussed, and improvement of the vibration behaviour in the presence of intermediate braces is confirmed. Application of higher vibration modes in building and bridge design is outlined. The effects of the number and distribution of the intermediate braces to improve structural stability against vibration behaviour is outlined.
