The natural vibration problem of curved thin-walled beams is solved by the dynamic stiffness method. The dynamic stiffness of a curved open thin-walled beam is given. The computed natural frequencies of the beam are compared with those obtained by a completely analytical method to show the high accuracy of the present method. The interaction of in-plane and out-of-plane modes is emphasized.

Dynamic Stiffness Method

The exact vibration frequencies of continuous beams with internal releases are found using the dynamic stiffness method. Two types of releases are considered: hinge and sliding discontinuities. First, the exact dynamic stiffness matrix for a beam element with a release is derived and then used in the assembly of the structure dynamic stiffness matrix. The natural frequencies are found as the values of frequency that make this matrix singular. Then the mode shapes are found exactly. Examples are given for continuous beams with different releases.

Circular Cylindrical Shells

Free vibrations of partial fluid-filled orthotropic circular cylindrical shells are investigated using the Dynamic Stiffness Method (DSM) or Continuous Element Method (CEM) based on theFirst Order Shear Deformation Theory (FSDT) and non-viscous incompressible fluid equations. Numerical examples are given for analyzing natural frequencies and harmonic responses of cylindrical shells partially and completely filled with fluid under various boundary conditions. The vibration frequencies for different filling ratios of cylindrical shells are obtained and compared with existing experimental and theoretical results which indicate that the fluid filling can reduce significantly the natural frequencies of studiedcylindrical shells. Detailed parametric analysis is carried out to show the effects of some geometrical and material parameters on the natural frequencies of orthotropic cylindrical shells. The advantages of this current solution consist in fast convergence, low computational cost and high precision validating for all frequency ranges.

Risers are fluid conduits from subsea equipment to surface floating production platforms. The integrity of a riser system plays a very important role in deepwater developments. Riser dynamic analysis is an important part to the system design. This paper investigates riser dynamic analysis using the WKB-Based dynamic stiffness method. This paper first presents a theoretical formulation of the dynamic stiffness method. It then combines the dynamic stiffness method with the WKB theory, which assumes that the coefficients in the differential equation of motion are slowly varying. The WKB-based dynamic stiffness method is derived and a frequency dependent shape function is expressed implicitly. The Wittrick and Williams (W-W) algorithm is further extended to solve eigen value problem for a general non-uniform marine riser. Examples of non-uniform riser are analyzed and the results show the efficiency of this method. In addition, a pipe-in-pipe riser system is analyzed for natural frequencies and mode shapes using the WKB-based dynamic stiffness method with the W-W algorithm. The characteristic of the mode shapes is described for such a riser system.
