ABSTRACT

Mobility functions involving rotational velocities and

moment excitations must be determined for the prediction of the re-

sponses of certain types of structures in dynamic analyses. Previous

investigators have approached the difficult task of experimentally

measuring such mobilities with the use of special fixturing attached

to the structures. It is shown that rotational mobilities of

structures are equivalent to spatial derivatives of their transla-

tional mobilities. The method of finite differences is adapted to

the approximation of these derivatives. By this approach the

rotational mobilities are derived from sets of conventionally

measured translational mobilities, eliminating the need for special

fixturing.

This method of determining rotational mobilities is demon-

strated in a set of experiments on a free-free beam. Good agreement

is obtained between experimentally and theoretically generated

versions of two rotational velocity/force mobilities. An experi-

mentally derived rotational velocity/moment mobility is found to

give reasonably good indications of resonances, but exhibits large

amounts of scatter in some frequency bands. This scatter is attri-

buted to the subtraction of translational mobility quantities which

are nearly equal in magnitude with resultant magnification of minor

irregularities present in them. Further investigation is recommended

to determine an effective method of smoothing the translational

mobility data before the differencing calculations to eliminate this

scatter.

The finite difference method of determining rotational

mobilities is seen to accommodate considerable variation in the

spacings of the points where the constituent translational mobilities

are measured.

I. INTRODUCTION

A. Background

The application of mobility functions* and their inverse

quantities, mechanical impedances,to practical problems in vibration,

shock, and acoustics has been treated extensively in the literature.

Mobility and impedance concepts are readily adaptable to dynamic

response predictions for assemblages of two or more component

structures.

A mobility function is a transfer function relating the

complex amplitude of motion at some point on a structure in response

to the complex amplitude of an excitation force applied at any point

on the same structure. In the most commonly discussed type of

mobility the response motion is a translational component of velocity,

and the excitation is a translational force as illustrated in the

transfer mobility example of Figures 1.1(a). However, the concept

of mobility can be extended to rotational velocities and moment

excitations as shown in the examples of Figures 1.1(b) through 1.1(d).

A matrix relationship involving the transfer mobilities thus defined

between the two points is shown in Figure 1.1(e).

The matrix formulation shown in Figure 1.1(e) can be

specialized to the case where the response measurement point, B,

*

Also denoted as admittances or receptances.

- 14 -

Page 15: A METHOD FOR EXPERIMENTALLY DETERMINING ROTATIONAL …

is coincident with the excitation point, A, i.e., each matrix element

is a driving point mobility; or it can be generalized to include the

existence of motions and excitations at both points. In the latter

instance the second order mobility matrix shown would be expanded

to the fourth order. Generalizing still further, the transfer

mobility matrix shown in Figure 1.1(e) could be extended to the six

possible senses of motion and applied excitation in a three-dimensional

application, attaining order 6. The mobility matrix would be enlarged

still further as additional locations for responses and excitations

would be considered.

In many instances the mobility or impedance quantities

are determined experimentally. In cases such as the applications of

impedance methods to vibration testing described in References (1)

and (2), the motions and forces involved are limited to translational

effects directed along a single axis. In the studies described in

References (3), (4), and (5), the applications are broadened to treat

the interconnection of components which may sustain rotational and

translational components of motion, but are assumed to have only

translational interaction effects. For an assemblage to be

accurately modeled by such an approach, there must be negligibly

small moment reactions among components at each interface in the

actual system by virtue of joint configuration, symmetry, or other

factors.- 15 -

Page 16: A METHOD FOR EXPERIMENTALLY DETERMINING ROTATIONAL …

Cantilevered assemblages can be readily conceived wherein

the most important interactions are rotational; in such cases there

must be compatibility of rotations at connections, and moment

reactions are far more significant than force interactions. Ex-

tensions of mobility and impedance methods to response predictions in

these cases have been hampered by difficulties in experimentally

measuring the rotational mobilities. Whereas the measurement of

translational velocities and forces is presently a routine process,

apparatus for the measurement of rotational velocities and moments in

structural dynamics applications is not commercially available.

Noiseux and Meyer (6) suggest that the lack of a general measurement

technique has retarded the application of mobility concepts and in

some cases has distorted the applications by mandating the use of

what can be measured rather than what should be measured.

Explorations of methods for the measurement of moment

excitations and rotation responses are described in References (7),

(8) and (9). In each of these studies a special fixture has been

attached to the structure being measured, and conventional linear

force gages and accelerometers have been, in turn, mounted at

various locations on the fixture. By appropriate algebraic operations

on the data gathered in each of the various measurement configurations,

rotational mobilities have been obtained with varying degrees of

success. Corrections for the dynamic influences of the fixturing

have been required in each case.

Page 17: A METHOD FOR EXPERIMENTALLY DETERMINING ROTATIONAL …

B. Scope

The objective of this thesis is to improvise and demon-

strate a method of generating experimental rotational mobility

functions using conventional measurement techniques without a

requirement for the use of special fixturing. The approach taken

has been to represent mobilities involving rotational velocities

and moment excitations as spatial derivatives of conventional

translational mobilities; the derivatives are approximated as

finite difference sums of sets of these translational mobilities.

In Section II, the theoretical basis and calculational methods

for these representations are developed. Section III describes the

experimental and theoretical determination of mobilities of a

free-free beam demonstrating these methods. Section IV presents

the conclusions drawn.

II. DERIVING ROTATIONAL MOBILITIES FROM TRANSLATIONAL MOBILITIES

A. Rotational Velocity/Force Mobility

Figure 2.1(a) depicts a segment of a structure which is

being driven by a sinusoidal translational force applied to Point A

and in which the resultant sinusoidal translational velocity is being

measured at Point B. Considering momentarily that the excitation is at

a particular frequency&4)M, the value of the translational mobility

at that frequency is the complex quantity 4)/zM M). Now

suppose that the velocity measurement is made in turn at each point

of a set of points adjacent to Point B with the excitation maintained

at Point A as shown in Figure 2.1(b). The resulting complex amplitude

ratios 0;Je40) could be plotted as functions of the position

coordinate, , of the measuring point as shown in Figure 2.1(c).

The real and imaginary mobility data, if carefully measured, would be

found to lie on smooth curves by virtue of the continuity of the wave

fields comprising the vibration of the structure.. Tangent lines

could be drawn to these curves at the coordinate X of Point B.

The slopes of these tangents would have the following significance.

The instantaneous angular displacement of the structure at a

location relative to its rest position would be given by:

J 0w

- 18 -

Page 19: A METHOD FOR EXPERIMENTALLY DETERMINING ROTATIONAL …

The time rate of change of this slope would be given by:

C/ d:ow iJL4~ 7 (2.1)

But, because the excitation is sinusoidal, this angular velocity

could be expressed as

(2.2)= )

By combining Eq. (2.2) and the relation

with Eq. (2.1), it is found that

B. Translational Velocity/Moment Mobility

In Figure 2.2(a) the structure is again shown with

translational excitation and response vectors at Points A and B,

respectively. Again with the excitation frequency set at AIM

suppose that the excitation force is applied in turn at each of a

set of points adjacent to A with responses measured at Point B

as shown in Figure 2.2(b). The resulting complex amplitude ratios

A 4M ;6 could be plotted as functions of the position

coordinate, , of the excitation point as shown in Figure 2.2(c).

The real and imaginary mobility components would again be found to

lie on smooth curves to which tangent lines could be drawn at the

coordinate X of Point A. The significance of the tangent slopes to

these curves is explained as follows.

With reference to Figure 2.2(d) it is seen that an

instantaneous moment applied to the structure at Point A could be

equivalently represented as a pair of equal and opposite parallel

forces separated a small distance, E . The response of the

structure at Point B to a sinusoidally varying moment at Point A

could then be expressed as follows:

The structure will again be envisioned as being excited by

location coordinate 5 of the force application point is then made

to vary about X , the resultant derivative of translational

mobility relates the complex amplitude of translational velocity

at Point B to the complex amplitude of applied moment at Point A in- 21 -

D. Summary of Derivative Relationships

The mobility matrix relating the translational and

rotational velocity amplitudes at the response measuring Point B to

the amplitudes of force and moment at the excitation Point A on a

structure was shown in Figure 1.1(e). In accordance with Eqs. (2.5),

(2.9) and (2.11) each element of this mobility matrix is a function

which can be re-expressed in terms of the translational velocity/

force mobility function, yielding the following:

E. Implementation by Finite Difference Method

The calculation of spatial derivatives of translational

velocity/force mobilities is the essence of the above described

approach to determining rotational mobilities. For application

of this approach to the experimental determination of mobilities,

these derivatives must be approximated from conventional mobility

measurements made at a limited number of discrete locations on a

structure. The method of finite differences, References (10) and

(11), is used for this purpose.- 23 -

(2.12)

Page 24: A METHOD FOR EXPERIMENTALLY DETERMINING ROTATIONAL …

Let the symbol f denote a translational velocity/force

mobility function to identify it as one of a set of conventional

mobilities from which one or more rotational mobilities will be

derived. These conventional mobilities will be determined with re-

sponse velocity measurements made at locations ..

spaced z apart, and with force excitations applied at locations

-- -/)$/..... spacedAJ apart. Thus the notation

will represent the mobility function V P),

If ( were a function of only the single spatial coordinate

, each of the following expressions would approximate the continuous

ordinary first derivative of that function, correct to within trunca-

tion errors of the order of

The choice of the approximation which would be used from among these

three would depend on whether the location where the derivative is

desired happens to be an inboard location, and if an end location,

whether at the positive end or the negative end of the7 interval.

For the mobility function O(a-;A ) )in which two spatial coordinates

are involved, the first partial derivative approximations have

similar form to the ordinary derivative approximation:- 24 -

cont'd)

The above central difference expression is usable for evaluating any

rotational velocity/moment mobility in which the hypothetical moment

excitation is applied at a point inboard of the ends and the rotational

velocity response is at the same point or any other inboard point.

The forward difference expression applies only to the case in which

both 1 and 5 coincide with the negative ends of their ranges;

i.e., the hypothetical moment excitation is applied and the rotational

velocity response is measured at the left end of the structure.

Similarly, the backward difference expression applies only in the

case where both the hypothetical moment excitation and the rotational

velocity response locations are at the right (positive) end of the

structure. Such end-located rotational mobilities would be of main

importance in analyzing the dynamic response of cantilevered structures.

However, in instances where the moment excitation would be applied at

an end point and the rotational velocity response would be measured at

some other location, or vice-versa, none of the above difference

expressions would be applicable. Reference (11) contains other

finite difference formulations which would apply in these instances.

In summary, the evaluation of a particular rotational

- 26 -

Page 27: A METHOD FOR EXPERIMENTALLY DETERMINING ROTATIONAL …

mobility using the above finite difference approximation methods

requires the prior determination of between two and nine conventional

translational mobilities, the quantity depending on the location and

type of rotational mobility desired. For driving point rotational

velocity/moment mobilities the number of translational mobilities

needed may be cut almost in half by resort to the use of the

reciprocal theorem for dynamic loads, Reference (12); because , '

as a consequency of this theorem, either of these mobilities may be

substituted for the other. It is further noted that several dif-

ferent rotational mobilities can be evaluated using a common set of

translational mobilities.

The selection of response measurement and excitation

location spacingsl 7 andA f , must achieve a balance between

resolution and proper approximation of derivatives across the number

of natural modes of vibration encompassed in the band of frequencies.

Some analytically or experimentally obtained knowledge of mode shapes

is desirable for use in the determination of the point spacings. The

results of Section III.D demonstrate that this balance is achievable

with latitude in the selectionat least in cases where a limited

number of resonances are included in the frequency band.

III. EXPERIMENTAL MOBILITY MEASUREMENTS ON A FREE-FREE BEAM

A. Test Specimen and Test Equipment

Figure 3.1 depicts the beam which was prepared from cold

rolled steel rectangular bar stock for experiments to demonstrate

the previously described approach to obtaining rotational mobilities.

Excitation point and motion monitoring point locations were establish-

ed for experimental measurements of all the conventional translation-

al mobilities needed to generate the rotational mobilities identified

in Figure 3.2 by the methods of backward differences. The mobilities

included therein would be among those required to predict the trans-

lational motion at Point A due to cantilever attachment of the beam

to a moving foundation or other component at Point B.

The particular set of beam cross section dimensions was

chosen such that the off-axis (stiff direction) natural vibration

frequencies would not coincide with the drive direction (flexible

direction) natural frequencies. The tapped holes shown in Figure 3.1

were added to enable stud attachment of an impedance head for force

measurements at each drive point location in turn. Because most of

the required translational mobilities were to be transfer

mobilities, all motion measurements were made by attaching the

accelerometer to the opposite side of the beam from the impedance

head using beeswax. Accurate placement of the accelerometer was

facilitated by lines scribed on the surface coincident with the

- 28 -

Page 29: A METHOD FOR EXPERIMENTALLY DETERMINING ROTATIONAL …

driving stud hole centers. It is seen in Figure 3.1 that the outer-

most drive points were located as close to the beam ends as possible

with assurance of proper seating of the instrumentation at these end

locations. The .044m spacing of the driving and measuring points

at End B was established by first sketching the mode shape of the

expected highest resonance within the planned test frequency band of

0-2000 Hz. The three driving points were then spaced at the widest

distance where the backward difference method could be expected to

approximate the slope of this mode shape reasonably well. This

spacing was chosen as wide as possible to provide resolution for

accuracy in the approximation of slopes at the frequency of the

lowest resonance.

The mobility tests were conducted using broad band

stationary random excitation. The force and acceleration signals

were recorded and processed by a minicomputer using the fast Fourier

transform coherence/cross spectral density program COHER previously

developed for the Acoustics and Vibration Laboratory in conjunction

with the Reference (5) ScD dissertation. The overall test system

with identification of the test equipment used is shown in Figure 3.3.

The test beam, which weighed 5.64 kg, was suspended

yertically from one end by means of elastic bands and was driven

horizontally to effect the intended free-free boundary conditions.

The horizontally oriented shaker, which was capable of generating

a maximum force amplitude of about 25 nt, was connected to the stud-

mounted impedance head by means of a .05m long by .002m diameter

shaft capble of accommodating minor misalignments between shaker

and beam. The beeswax-mounted accelerometer was of 2 grams mass,

and the total mass of the impedance head was 60 grams.

B. Test Procedure

Calibration of the accelerometer signal channel was

performed by temporarily mounting the accelerometer on a General

Radio Model 1557A calibrator. Subsequently, the force signal

channel was calibrated by connecting a rigid disk of known mass to

the impedance head and exciting it sinusoidally; the calibrated

accelerometer signal and the known mass were used to establish the

actual force amplitude represented by a given force signal. The

calibration values obtained were found to be close to( the trans-

ducer manufacturers' ratings, The proper functioning of the entire

test system was later verified by driving the rigid disk with

random force input; the mobility data generated by the system were

matched very closely by the theoretical mobility of a pure mass of

the same value.

To maximize the dynamic range of the measurement system,

it was necessary to make the frequency spectrum of both channels

simultaneously as flat as possible across the 0-2000 Hz band of

interest, The test beam was instrumented at typical driving and

response locations, and the signal spectra were monitored in real

- 30 -

Page 31: A METHOD FOR EXPERIMENTALLY DETERMINING ROTATIONAL …

time using the spectrum analyzer. It was found that adequate flatness

could be obtained with the use of one signal generator output bandpass

filter as shown in Figure 3.3. A 63 Hz high pass corner frequency

setting and a 1600 Hz low pass corner frequency setting were used for

this filter throughout the beam mobility testing. These settings

provided the required flatness of signal spectra from 0 to 2000 Hz

while providing desired roll-off in driving force above 2000 Hz and

precluding large-amplitude,low-frequency rigid body motions of the

beam.

Prior to the start of each mobility data acquisition run

the signal channel gains were adjusted until the signal levels,

monitored on the oscilloscope, seldom exceeded the 5 volt maximum

input level of the analog to digital converters. The channel gain

values and transducer sensitivity values were then specified as in-

put data to the computer along with the desired number of averages

(400. for each run). Also specified was the maximum frequency value

(one-half the sampling rate), which was 2560 Hz for all runs. The

force and acceleration signal channel bandpass filters were

accordingly set at corner frequencies of 2 Hz (high pass) and

2000 Hz (low pass) for both channels. The latter setting was con-

sistent with the Reference (5) recommendation that the high fre-

quency roll-off point be set at 0.4 times the sampling rate to

eliminate aliasing effects,

C. Measured Vs. Theoretical Translational Mobilities

For each mobility test run, the minicomputer calculated

power spectral densities and cross spectral densities of the force

and acceleration signals along with their relative phase and coherence

values. These outputs were generated at discrete frequencies spaced

10 Hz apart over a band extending from 10 Hz to 2000 Hz and were

converted into translational mobilities as explained below.

In the definition of a translational mobility as a transfer

function relating sinusoidal force and velocity quantities, the* irit

acceleration corresponding to the velocity W, is given as

W = 44C) L) = Aew (3, )

Then the translational mobility is related to the acceleration/force

cross spectral density,G-- , and the power spectral density of the

force, G, in accordance with

Frequently the force and acceleration signals in mobility

measurements are corrected for the mass and flexibility effects of

the portion of the impedance head below the force gage. Such cor-

rections are described in Reference (5), but the corrections therein

pertain to driving point mobilities only. In transfer mobility

measurements these effects cannot be determined with the test

system described, as the measured accelerations are different from

those sustained by the impedance head. Because the bulk of the

mobilities measured were transfer mobilities, no impedance head

corrections were made in any of the runs.

The computer program TRANS, listed in Appendix C,.was

written to convert the spectral density output data from COHER into

translational mobilities per Eqs.(3.5) and (3.6) and to create plots

and store the results in quadrature form on disk for later manipulation.

Data input to the TRANS program is via punched cards. A separate pro-

gram, THEOR, listed in Appendix B,was written to generate theoretical

translational and rotational mobility functions for Bernoulli-Euler

beams and to store them on disk in magnitude and phase form for use

in comparison with the experimental results. The derivation of the

equations programmed in THEOR is presented in Appendix A.

By virtue of the reciprocal theorem for dynamic loads,

Reference (12), mobility matrices such. as given in Figure 3.2 are

symmetric. Thus all elements of the matrix shown would be established

if only the upper or lower triangular portion were evaluated. If

arbitrarily the lower triangular portion is chosen to be evaluated,

the translational mobilities needed to establish this matrix are

as follows:

-223 Z2- 34 -

Page 35: A METHOD FOR EXPERIMENTALLY DETERMINING ROTATIONAL …

A further consequence of the reciprocal theorem is the sym-

metry of translational mobilities, i.e., . Also, by

geometric symmetry it is seen that Combining these com-

monalities, the entire nine-element mobility matrix shown in Figure 3.2

would be established by measurement of the following nine translational

mobilities or their reciprocals:

Theoretical and experimental versions of these translational

mobilities were generated as explained above. A tendency toward

erratic results was observed in the experimental magnitude data in

regions of resonances. It was found that these erratic results occur-

red at frequencies where the coherence values fell to low levels

(less than .50). The low coherences were attributable to the force

signal spectra having decayed to the level of the background noise

floor at the resonances; this tendency is more pronounced with items

having low damping such as the test beam. In an attempt to obtain

the best possible translational mobility data for subsequent use in

deriyjng rotational mobilities, replacenent magnitude data for the

more noticeably erratic regions were obtained using sinusoidal ex-

citation, A sine wave generator was substituted for the random

signal generator and bandpass filter, and the acceleration and force

signal peak values were read from the oscilloscope without the use

of the computer. No revised phase measurements were made. A typical

comparison of the original random excitation mboility results with

the substituted-data version of the same mobility is shown for /

in Figure 3.4. Magnitude data substitutions- were made in the experi-

mental mobilities as follows:

None

None

130-220, 380-520

93 330-520

430-540, 790-960

The substitutions were made over wide enough bands of frequencies

so that the sinusoidally generated data merged with the random-

excitation data with minimal discontinuities.

Figures 3.5 through 3.12 show plots of the substituted

data versions of the remaining experimental translational mobilities.

All theoretical mobility plots are comprised of straight line seg-

ments connecting data points at 10 Hz intervals and are calculated

based on an assumed equivalent viscous damping ratio of .005 for

each elastic mode. In general, the agreement between the experi-

Page 37: A METHOD FOR EXPERIMENTALLY DETERMINING ROTATIONAL …

mental and the theoretical results is good up to the third

resonance (approximately 850 Hz); however, there are noticeable

discrepancies in frequency at the fourth resonance. The reason for

the discrepancies is not clear; possibly the impedance head

rotational inertia became significant in this higher mode, where

rotational kinetic energy acquired its greatest proportion of the

total kinetic energy.

It was concluded that the portions of the experimental

data below 1000 Hz could be considered "good" data for generating

rotational mobilities, but that satisfactory results could not be

expected above 1000 Hz,

D. Experimentally Derived Vs. Theoretical Rotational Mobilities

The computer program ROTAT listed in Appendix D was

written to perform the backward difference calculations indicated

in Eqs. (2.15) and (2.16), which generate right-end rotational mobilities

such as those indicated in Figure 3.2 from an appropriately chosen

set of translational mobilities, The translational mobilities are

read by the computer from storage on disk in quadrature component

form over a set of discrete frequencies. The output rotational

mobilities are plotted in magnitude and phase form and can be stored

on disk for subsequent manipulation if desired.

The previously discussed experimental translational

mobilities were read by this program for calculation of the test beam

- 37 -

rotational mobilities F, and Y 14.

The results are shown plotted in Figures 3.13, 3.14 and 3.15,

respectively, along with corresponding theoretical mobility functions

generated with the use of the previously mentioned computer program

THEOR. Again a damping ratio value of .005 was used for each

elastic mode in calculating the theoretical mobilities.

The agreement between the experimental and theoretical

versions of the rotational velocity/force mobilities and

over the previously cited 0-1000 Hz band of "good"

translational mobility data is reasonably close. Although the experi-

mentally derived rotational velocity/moment mobility

gives, reasonably clear and accurate, indications of resonances, it

exhibits a great deal of scatter in both magnitude and phase in some

regions, This latter mobility function and its constituent

translational mobilities were examined closely in the frequency band

230 to 300 Hz, where there was a marked degree of scatter in both

the magnitude and phase plots,

The translational mobility data in this band were generated

entirely by random excitation with no substitution of sinusoidally

generated data. The scatter in the derived mobility data in this band

seems at first glance to be inconsistent with the smoothness of the

translational nobility data, Figures 3.4 through 3.12, within the

same band. The quadrature components of the constituent trans-

lational mobilities over this band are plotted on expanded scales in

- 38 -

Page 39: A METHOD FOR EXPERIMENTALLY DETERMINING ROTATIONAL …

Figures 3.16 and 3.17, and the quadrature components of the resultant

rotational mobility are shown in Figure 3.18. It is seen that the

translational mobilities had been nearly purely imaginary, but the

algebraic summation of these numbers gave a resultant imaginary

component which was much smaller than most of the individual con-

stituents, magnifying the minor degrees of irregularity present in

them. The scatter in the real components of the constituents,

Figure 3.16, had been present due to minor deviations in measured

phase from the ideal value, -90'. The scatter in the quadrature com-

ponents of the resultant mobility Y, Figure 3.18,is the

source of the scatter in the magnitude and phase noted in Figure 3.15.

This examination of scatter in the Y45t 4W

mobility shows that the stability of derived rotational mobilities,

would be enhanced by performing smoothing operations on the transla-

tional mobility data before the differencing calculations. An

effective approach to smoothing might be to fit analytical mobility

expressions to a number of data points in each experimental mobility

as described in References (4) and (9), Examples of the resultant

rotational mobilities which can be derived by the differencing method

from translational mobilities which are smooth and accurate are shown

in Figures 3,19 and 3,20, The THEOR program was temporarily modified

to establish quadrature versions of the theoretical translational

mobiliti es of Figures 3.4 through 3.12 on disk files, and the

- 39 -

Page 40: A METHOD FOR EXPERIMENTALLY DETERMINING ROTATIONAL …

3F (4) and .g8A4) mobility data points in

Figures 3.19 and 3.20 were generated by having the ROTAT program

process these files in the same manner as it had processed the ex-

perimental data. With the exception of small deviations in anti-

resonant frequencies seen in Figure 3.20, the agreement between the

theoretical and derived mobilities is excellent.

Figures 3.21 through 3.24 show C ) and

Y49 f rotational mobili'ty results similarly derived from

theoretical translational mobilities which were calculated at

locations corresponding toA8.038MandA 2 .02z%/

or twice and one-half the spacing of the experimental measurement

points. The results for the wide spacing, Figures 3.21 and 3,22,

show additional degrees of the antiresonant frequency deviation

noted in Figure 3.20, but the more important matching of resonant

frequencies is again achieved. The results for close spacing,

Figures 3.23 and 3.24, show excellent agreement throughout, Thus

the latitude of the differencing method of deriving rotational

mobilities in accommodating variation in measurement location

spacings is demonstrated.

Page 41: A METHOD FOR EXPERIMENTALLY DETERMINING ROTATIONAL …

IV. CONCLUSIONS

Rotational mobilities of structures are equivalent to

spatial derivatives of their translational mobilities and can be

determined experimentally by finite difference approximations involving

sets of measured translational mobilities. Good agreement was ob-

tained between experimentally and theoretically generated versions of

two rotational velocity/force mobilities of a free-free beam. An

experimentally derived rotational velocity/moment mobility gave

reasonably good indications of resonance, but exhibited large amounts

of scatter in some frequency bands. This scatter was found to result

from the subtraction of nearly equal translational mobility quantities

in the differencing operation, magnifying minor irregularities present

in them.

It is believed that this scatter in the rotational

mobilities can be eliminated by smoothing operations on the trans-

lational mobility data such as curve fitting before the differencing

calculations. However, further investigation should be conducted to

determine an efficient algorithm for performing the smoothing and to

evaluate its effectiveness in reproducing the magnitudes and trends

that characterize the experimental data.

It has been shown that the differencing method of deter-

mining rotati onal mobilities can accommodate considerable variation

in the spacings of the points where the constituent translational

mobilities are measured,- 41 -

THEORETICAL MOBILITIES OF A FREE-FREE BEAM

I

The governing partial differential equation for the

free vibration of an undamped uniform beam is given by Eq. (5.82) of

Ref. (12) as

T 0-&(A.1)

The derivation of this equation, referred to as the Bernoulli-Euler

beam equation, is based on the assumption that the effects of rotary

inertia and shearing deformations are negligible in comparison with

the effects of translational inertia and flexural deformations (i.e.,

the beam is slender).

The free vibration mode shapes and frequencies are ob-

tained by first assuming a harmonic solution of the form

(A.2)

Page 72: A METHOD FOR EXPERIMENTALLY DETERMINING ROTATIONAL …

Substitution of this expression into Eq. (A.1) results in the ordinary

differential equation

be equal to zero; effecting this condition yields the characteristic

equation

problem and are given in p. 165 of Ref. (13) as follows:

At this point the forced vibration response for the un-

damped beam can be evaluated in terms of the preceding eigenfunctions.
