Abstract

In this paper, the effect of external axial force on natural frequency of the beam is studied. Finite element modelling software ANSYS is used to model the steel beam and the axial force was applied at the centre of gravity of the steel beam. The natural frequency of the beam changes with the axial force applied on beam. The study gives a comparative analysis of natural frequency results obtained analytically and by using ANSYS. The result shows that the natural frequency of the beam decreases with the increase in external axial force applied on the beam.
