Free Vibrations of Curved Beams with Elastic Springs

This paper deals with the free vibrations curved beams with elastic springs. Taking into account the effects of rotatory inertia and shear deformation, differential equations governing the free vibrations of such beams are derived, in which each elastic spring is modeled as a discrete Winkler foundation with very short longitudinal length. Differential equations are solved numerically to calculate natural frequencies and mode shapes. In numerical examples, the circular, parabolic, sinusoidal and elliptic curved members are considered. The parametric studies are conducted and the lowest four frequency parameters are reported in tables and figures as the non-dimensional fonns. Also the typical mode shapes are presented.
