This paper deals with the coupled flexural-torsional vibrations of Timoshenko beams with monosymmetric cross-section. The governing differtial equations for free vibration of such beams are derived and solved numerically to obtain frequencies and mode shapes. Numerical results are calculated for three specific examples of beams with free-free, clamped-free, hinged-hinged, clamped-hinged and clamped-clamped end constraints. The effect of warping stiffess on the natural frequencies and mode shapes is discussed and it is concluded that substantial error can be incurred if the effect is ignored.
