Abstract
- A cantilever beam having arbitrary cross section with a lumped mass attached to its free end while being excited harmonically at the base is fully investigated. The derived equation of vibrating motion is found to be a non-linear parametric ordinary differential equation, having no closed form solution for it. We have, therefore, established the sufficient conditions for the existence of periodic oscillatory behavior of the beam using Green’s function and employing Schauder’s fixed point theorem. The derived equation of vibration motion is found to be a non-linear parametric ordinary differential equation, having no closed form solution for it. To formulate a simple, physically correct dynamic model for stability and periodicity analysis, the general governing equations are truncated to only the first mode of vibration. Using Green’s function and Schauder’s fixed point theorem, the necessary and sufficient conditions for periodic oscillatory behavior of the beam are established. Consequently, the phase domain of periodicity and stability for various values of physical characteristics of the beam-mass system and harmonic base excitation are presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
