DYNAMIC STRUCTURAL DESIGN BY MEANS OF FINITE ELEMENT METHOD

CALCUL DYNAMIQUE DES STRUCTUES PAR LA METHODE DES ELEMENTS FINIS

This note explains the application of the finite element method to dynamic structural design, the emphasis being placed nearly exclusively on the determination of the resonance frequencies of the structures and their associated dynamic deformations. Some of the finite elements most often used in practice are outlined, and examples of calculation of various structures illustrate the possibilities of the method. The structures studied are: (1) structures comprising bars; (2) pipes subjected to vibrating pressures; (3) structures comprising rectangular plates; (4) structures comprising triangular plates. /TRRL/
