The bending beam can be used vertically standing or hanging and in the horizontal position in the mounting frame. An oscillator, which is left alone after a single excitation, performs free vibrations. In this, a bending beam is used as the systems oscillator. The frequency of the free vibration is the natural frequency of the oscillator.
Learning Objectives And Experiments:
Determine the natural frequency according to Rayleigh
Free vibration in a vertical and horizontal bending beam
How clamping length and mass affect the natural frequency.
Features:
Approximation method according to Rayleigh.
