Module-VII

CALCULATION OF NATURAL FREQUENCY 1. Rayleigh’s Method: This is the energy method to find the frequency. This method is used to find the natural frequency of the

system when transverse point loads are acting on the beam or shaft. Good estimate of fundamental

frequency can be made by assuming the suitable deflection curve for the fundamental mode. The

maximum kinetic energy is equated to maximum potential energy of the system to determine the natural

frequency.

𝜔𝑛 = �𝑔∑𝑚𝑖𝑦𝑖∑𝑚𝑖𝑦𝑖2

Where: 𝑦1 = 𝑚1𝑔 𝛼11 + 𝑚2 𝑔 𝛼12

𝑦2 = 𝑚1𝑔 𝛼12 + 𝑚2 𝑔 𝛼22

2. Stodola Method: The stodola method may be set up in the following tabular form as follows, assuming an arbitrary set of

values for the fundamental principal mode, the inertia force acting on each mass is equal to the product of

the assumed deflection and the square of the natural frequency as shown in row 2. The spring force in row

3 is equal to the total inertia force acting on each spring. Row 4 is obtained by dividing row 3, term by

term, by their respective spring constants. The calculated deflections in row 5 are found by adding the

deflections due to the springs, with the mass near the fixed end having the least deflection and so on. The

calculated deflections are then compared with the assumed deflections. This process is continued until the

calculated deflections are proportional to the assumed deflections. When this is true the assumed

deflections will represent the configuration of the fundamental principal mode of vibration of the system.

3. Matrix Iteration Method: This is an iterative procedure that leads to the principal modes of vibration of a system and its natural

frequencies.

Displacements of the masses are estimated, from which the matrix equation of the system is written. The

influence coefficients of the system are substituted into the matrix equation which is then expanded.

Normalization of the displacement and expansion of the matrix is repeated. This process is continued until

the first mode repeat itself to any desired degree of accuracy.

For the next higher modes and natural frequencies, the orthogonality principle is used to obtain a new

matrix equation that is free from any lower modes the iterative procedure is repeated.

4. Holzer Method & Dunkerley’s Method:

i) Holzer Method

Begin the Holzer tabulation with the column of position, indicating the masses of the system.

The second column is for the values of the different masses of the system; this information is

given. The third column is the product of mass and frequency squared. Displacement comes

next, and is obtained from the preceding row minus the total displacement at the end of the same

row. Column five is just the product of columns three and four. The total inertia force is inserted

in column six. It is equal to the sum of the total inertia force in the preceding row plus the inertia

force on the same row. The rest are plainly evident.

An initial displacement, usually equal to unity for convenience, is assumed. If the assumed

frequency happens to be one of the natural frequencies of the systems, the final total inertia force

on the system should be zero. This is because the system is having free vibration. If the final total

inertia force is not equal to zero, the amount indicates the discrepancy of the assumed frequency.

The Dunkerley’s equation for multi dot system is given by

Where ωn = fundamental natural frequency of the system.

ω1, ω2, ω3 etc. are the natural frequency of the system with each mass acting separately at its

point of application, in the absence of other masses, using influence coefficients Prof. Dunkerley

has suggested the following empirical equation.

1/ ωn2 = α11m1 + α22m2 + α33m3 + …………..

Dunkerley’s equation is used to determine the fundamental natural frequency of the system
