Purpose Catastrophe of steel-structured bridges due to progressive localized corrosion may lead to a major loss in terms of life and cost if not monitored continuously or periodically. The …
Purpose In this paper, an approximate analytical approach is developed for the determination of natural longitudinal frequencies of a cantilever-cracked beam based on the …
In this paper, free vibration analysis of a cracked cantilever bar by an Approximate Analytical approach is investigated. The crack is modeled by an equivalent axial spring with stiffness …
