Modal Analysis Of A Cantilever Plate, Ohseop Song May 1986

Modal Analysis Of A Cantilever Plate, Ohseop Song

Theses

This thesis discusses the vibration of a thin, flat cantilever aluminum plate. Results are based on both an analytical finite element method using the ANSYS program and an experimental analysis using a digital Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) analyzer. The FFT analyzer permits extraction of modal parameters (natural frequency, damping, mode shape) for the plate.
