The free lateral bending vibrations of an “infinitely” long or simply-supported thin-walled circular cross-section beams having elastic-viscoelastic-elastic layers are investigated to determine the natural frequencies and associated composite loss factors. The analysis considers the inner and outer beams to behave as elastic beams in which the mass and mass-moment of inertia are both considered along with the interaction of the two elastic beams through the viscoelastic material. The results indicate that there are two natural frequencies. The lower one associated with the two elastic beams moving together so that little damping is obtained in this mode of vibration; the higher mode in which the two elastic beams vibrate in opposite directions so that there is an amount of damping comparable to the material loss factor of the viscoelastic material. A simplified model analysis is performed which is used to corroborate the trends obtained in the computer solutions of the more rigorous analysis. A series of curves are obtained for equal thickness elastic layers which can be used to obtain natural frequencies and composite loss-factors for a realistic range of geometrical and physical properties of a laminated circular cross-section simply supported beam.

Free-vibration characteristics of a thin-walled, open cross-section beam, with unconstrained damping layers at the flanges, are investigated. Both uncoupled transverse vibration and the coupled bending-torsion oscillations, of a beam of a top-hat section, are considered. Numerical results are presented for natural frequencies and modal loss factors of simply supported and clamped-clamped beams.

An experimental study of the response of axially-symmetric (i.e., circular cross-section) cantilever beams to planar external excitations is presented. Because of the axial symmetry, one-to-one internal resonances occur at each natural frequency. These resonances cause the planar motions to lose stability and nonplanar (whirling) motions are observed. Under certain conditions, periodically-and chaotically-modulated motions may occur. In addition, when the beam is excited near one of its high natural frequencies, large first-mode responses accompanied by slow modulations of the amplitudes and phases of high-frequency modes are observed. This interaction between high-and low-frequency modes may be extremely dangerous because the amplitudes of the responses of the low-frequency modes can be very large compared with those of the directly excited high-frequency modes.

It is known that fatigue cracks are one of the most important problems of the mechanical components, since their propagation can cause severe loss, both personal and economic. So, it is essential to know deeply the behavior of the cracked element to have tools that allow predicting the breakage before it happens. The shafts are elements that are specially affected by the described problem, because they are subjected to alternative compression and tension stresses. This work presents, firstly, an analytical expression that allows determining the first four natural frequencies of bending vibration of a nonrotating cracked shaft, assumed as an Euler–Bernoulli beam, with circular cross section under pinned-pinned conditions, taking into account the elliptical shape of the crack. Second, once the direct problem is known, the inverse problem is approached. Genetic Algorithm technique has been used to estimate the crack parameters assuming known the natural frequencies of the cracked shaft.
