Problem Specification

Prior, to attempting this tutorial, you must complete the Cantilever Beam Tutorial . If you have not yet completed the Cantilever Beam Tutorial, please do so now.

Consider a beam that is clamped at one end, with the following dimensions.

Length

4 m

Width

0.346 m

Height

0.346 m

The beam has a length of L=4 m, a width of w=0.346 m and a height of h=0.346 m. The beam is made out of Aluminum, which has a a Youngs Modulus of E=70 GPa, a Poisson Ratio of nu=0.35 and a density of rho=2.7 x 10^3 kg / m^3. Using ANSYS Workbench find the first six natural frequencies of the beam.
