Study of Finite Element Eigen Analysis of Beam With Arbitrary Cross Section

The use of 3-D finite elements for the eigen analysis of beam-like structures with arbitrary section shape may not be practical in certain cases, from the aspect of CPU time. In this connection, this paper presents a systematic algorithm for decomposing an arbitrary section into finite number of basic ones and computing essential sectional quantities required for the eigen analysis using the beam theory. The numerical accuracy of the proposed method is assesed from the comparison with the 3-D finite . element method.
