SDLS503 - Vibrations of bending of a beam
sandwich




Summary:

This test represents a calculation in modal analysis of a sandwich beam simply supported. This test allows
to validate:
·
modeling finite elements DKT with meshs QUAD4 and TRIA3,
·
modeling finite elements DST with meshs QUAD4 and TRIA3,
·
the taking into account of rigidity in transverse shearing,
·
the taking into composite material account.

The frequencies and the modes obtained are compared with an analytical reference solution.

11 Summary of the results
Modeling DKT is not adapted to modelize this case-test, the errors are very important.
Formulation DKT does not take into account transverse shearing contrary to modeling
DST. For this type of example, where the structure makes up of a composite material and relatively
thick (H/L =0.1), it is preferable to use DST modeling.
The results obtained with DST are:
·
satisfactory for the first 3 frequencies with mesh TRIA3 and for the 5 first
frequencies for mesh QUAD4 with a better precision for mesh QUAD4,
·
the error of 10% for the 4
ičme
and 5
ičme
frequency with mesh TRIA3 is significant. One
finer mesh should make it possible to improve the results by having the best
representation of the last modes.
