This investigation yielded ex- pressions for the mode shapes and characteristic equations for the various cases con- sidered. For the uniform beams the characteristic equations were solved either numer - ically or in closed form, and the results are presented by a seri es of graphs showing the effect of preload on the different types of beams. The effect of axial load on the mode shapes is also shown in graphical form for several different loading conditions. For the cantilevered beam with a tip mass, two types of axial loads were considered: In the first case the axial load vector remained constant, and in the second case the load was directed through the root of the beam at all times. The results of this portion of the in- vestigation are presented in graphs that show the effects of both tip-mass variation and , axial load on the fundamental frequency of the system. INTRODUCTION In the design of certain spacecraft structural components it sometimes becomes I necessary to determine the normal modes and frequencies of beam type components which are in a state of preload or prestress. This preload may result from inertial ef- I I fects, as in the case of a spinning spacecraft, or it may be induced by mechanical b I means. For example, current designs for large, flexible solar arrays (refs. 1 to 4) are such that the boom that supports the array is in a state of prestress due to the ten- sion that must be maintained in the solar cell substrate. Also, certain types of attach- ment and ejection mechanisms can cause preload in parts of the primary spacecraft structure. In most of these cases an exact solution for the normal modes and frequen- cies of the system would be intractable and recourse would be made to one of the many approximate solutions such as the Rayleigh-Ritz method, Galerkin's method, finite elements, etc. (refs. 5 to 8). There exists, however, a class of problems for which an exact solution can be obtained. This class consists of uniform beams under constant axial load with various types of simple boundary conditions. This type of structure may represent some structural components reasonably well for preliminary design informa- tion. Even in those cases where it does not adequately model the structure, the modes obtained for these cases can be used to obtain Rayleigh-Ritz or Galerkin type of solutions. For these reasons an investigation was made to determine the effect of an axial load on the modes and frequencies of a uniform beam with various boundary conditions and of a cantilevered beam with a tip mass. The boundary conditions considered for the uni- form beam include all possible simple boundary conditions at both ends of the beam (i.e. , free, hinged, clamped, and guided). For the cantilevered beam with a tip mass, two types of axial loads were considered. The first type was a constant axial load ap- plied at the tip, and the second was an axial load whose direction is always through the fixed supprt. The second is the limiting case for some current large solar array de- signs if the mass of the blanket is negligible compared with the mass of the support beam. When the mass of the blanket is not negligible, which is usually the situation, these modes could still be used in a Rayleigh-Ritz analysis for this type of array. k - k - kcr 1 'cr 2 SYMBOLS arbitrary constants of integration constants of integration corresponding to nth mode of vibration uniform beam bending stiffness axial load parameter, f z I nondimensional axial load parameter, )/Pl/EI nondimensional axial load parameter corresponding to critical load, length of beam moment distribution along length of beam total mass of beam, p l tip mass for cantilevered beam axial load critical or Euler 's buckling load for beam I X - X VT P w wn Subscripts : B n T Superscript: ? shearing force distribution time beam displacement nondimensional beam displacement, v/Z mode shape of nth mode lengthwise coordinate nondimensional lengthwise coordinate, x/Z characteristic values, eq.

In the development that follows the effect of an axi al load is included. i I 3 Consider a uniform beam vibrating freely under the action of a constant axial load P as shown in figure l(a). Let V(x, t) be the displacement of any point x along the neutral axis of the beam. The internal shear, moment, and inertial forces acting on an element dx in length will be as shown in figure l(b). Summing forces and moments on this element yields the following two equilibrium equations: (la) From elementary beam theory the moment-curvature relationship for the sign convention depicted in figures 1is M(x,t) =E1 a2v(x,t) n The shearing force Q(x, t, can be expressed in terms of the displacement variz-lle by us - ing equations (lb) and (IC). Thus Q(X,t) =- [.'a 3 v(x, t) + av(x,t) I (2 ) ax ax Finally, from equations (l a) and (2) the equation of motion in terms of the displacement variable can be written as Equation (3) represents the governing partial differential equation describing the motion of the beam, and equations (IC)and (2) represent the moment and shear distribution along the beam. Solution of equation and boundary conditions. - The time variable in equations (1)to ~ (3) can be eliminated by assuming a solution of the form V(x,t) =v(x) sin ut (4 a) 4 I M(x,t) =m(x) sin Wt Substituting equations (4) into equations (1)to (3) yields 4 a) 2 +k2 9- p4v(x) =0 dx 4 dx2 d2v(x) m(x) =E1 - dx2 q(x) =-E1 d3v(x) 2 dv(x) +k -1dx where k2 =P/EI and p4 =pd2/EI. It will be convenient at this point to put equa- tion (5) into nondimensional form by letting x=x/l, v= v/l, k =kl , and p =Pi?. Us- ing these expressions allows equations (5) and (6) to become -2-tt T""(x) +k v - m(x) - -4-- (x) - p V(X) =0 (7) EI-tt =-V 1 The solution to equation (7), which can be readily verified by direct substitution, is given by v(z)=A cosh a I z +B sinh a,F +D cos a,: +E sin a2x (9) where A, B, C, and D are constants and I 5 -- a l = ( 7+/ p ) l ' 2 - + p (10) CY2= -+ {- y 1 -+ P The frequency equation can now be determined from equation (9) once the boundary con- ditions are stipulated. The boundary conditions being considered at either end of the beam are as follows: Pinned - v= 0 and m =0 or v f f = O Clamped - - v = O and v ' =O Free - -2-1 m =0 or 5''=0 and q =0 or 7'" +k v =0 Guided - The various combinations of these boundary conditions at both ends of the beam are listed in table I. If the boundary conditions given by equations (11)are used at X =0, two of the unknown constants in equation (9) can be evaluated, and the resulting solutions are for the beam free at E =0 @2 sin a2%) (12a) a,? +- "1 for the beam pinned at x =0 I v(z)=A sinh al%+E sin a2x (12b) r 6 for the beam clamped at X =0 v(2)= A (cosh CY,^- cos cy 2 3 +B alx - -sin cy 2 x cy2 and for the beam guided at ?i =0 Note that each of equations (12) contains two unknowns. When the boundary conditions at - x =1 are specified, these equations will yield two homogeneous, algebraic equations in these two unknowns. The determinant of the coefficients of the unknowns must be equal to zero for a nontrivial solution to exist. Equating this determinant to zero then yields the characteristic equation from which the frequency parameter p can be determined as a function of axial load P or axial load parameter E. To illustrate, consider the case where the beam is free at x =1. From equation (l l c) the boundary conditions are k V"(1) =0 ?"'(l) +-2-1v (1) =0 (13) From equations (l2c) and (13) the following two homogeneous, algebraic equations in A and B are obtained after some manipulation: CY; cos al ) + Bb; sinh cyl - (144 3 cosh al - o2cos al)= 0 (14b1 Equating the determinant of the coefficients of A and B in equations (14) to zero, ex- panding, and simplifying will then yield the following characteristic equation for the free- free beam: -2-4 2p6(1 - cosh CY^ cos a2)+k (k +3z4) sinh cy1 sin a2 =0 Similarly, for the other boundary conditions at x =1 the following characteristic equa- tions are obtained: for the free-guided beam 3 CY 2 3 sinh a1 cos CY 2 +a1 cosh cy1 sin CY^ =0 (1%) 7 for the free-pinned beam 3 3 -a2 cosh alsin a2 +a1sinh alcos a2 =0 for the clamped-free beam -4 -2-2 2P +(2p4+E4)cosh a1cos a2 - p k sinh a1sin ai =0 for the clamped-pinned beam a1 cosh cy1 sin a2 - a2 sinh a1cos a2 =0 for the clamped-guided beam a1sinh cy1 cos cy2 +a2 cosh cy1 sin a2 =0 for the clamped-clamped beam -2 -2 2p (1 - cosh a1 cos a2)- k sinh alsin a2 =0 for the guided-guided and pinned-pinned beams sin a2 =0 and for the guided-pinned beam cos cu2 =0 (151) Equations (15g) and (15i) yield the following expressions for the frequency parameter: for the pinned-pinned or guided-guided beam - (16) and for the pinned-guided beam 8 Equations (16) and (17) exhibit the main characteristics of all the frequency equations given by equations (15). Namely, as P (or E) Increase, the frequencies decrease until P equals the Euler buckling load Per of the beam. At this point the lowest elastic fre- quency becomes zero. For P greater than Per, the fundamental frequency becomes complex, and the corresponding mode shape is unstable (ref. 6, p. 451 and ref. 8, p. 302). Thus, the maximum value for P of practical interest is Per. The values of Per and Ecr for beams with the different boundary conditions are tabulated in table E. To determine the frequency parameter for the beams wi t h other boundary conditions, equations (15) can be solved numerically for for any value of less than the cor- - responding kcr . Cantilevered Beam Under Axial Load With Tip Mass For the case of a cantilevered beam with a concentrated mass at the free end, two types of axial loads will be considered. In the first case (fig. 2(a)) the axial load will be taken as a constant in both magnitude and direction so that this case corresponds to the uniform clamped-free beam case except that a concentrated mass is added to the free end. In the second case (fig. 3(a)) the axialload is assumed to be directed through the root or fixed end of the beam at all times. For this case the axial load is not constant since it changes direction during the motion. Thistype of loading wi l l be referred to as a directed axial load. For both cases the deflection is given by (eq. (12c) since the boundary condition at the fixed end is the same as for a uniform cantilevered beam. Also, the moment boundary condition at the free end is the same for both cases and is given by ?'(I) =0 The difference between the two cases will be in the shear boundary condition at the free end. For the case of constant axiai load, the shear boundary conditions can be found by satisfging the equilibrium condition at the free end which is depicted in figure 2@). Thus From equations (6) and (9) this boundary condition becomes -2-1 F"'(I) -i- k v (1)tqTP -4- ~( 1) =0 (20) 9 where qT is the ratio of the tip mass AT to total beam mass, AB =pQ. From equa- tions (12c), (18), and (20) the following two homogeneous equations in A and B are obtained : A($ cosh al +4cos a2)+B ( 4 sinh al +32sin 1 A{ g sinh a1 - p2 sin a2 +qTD2(cosh a1- cos +B{g cosh cy1 +al 2 cos a +q - 2(a2sinh al - al sin a2)} =4 2 T Equating the determinant of the coefficients of A and B to zero, expanding and simplify- ing yields the following characteristic equation for a cantilever beam with a tip mass under constant axial load. -zp4 +-2-2 p k sinh a1sin a2 - (2B4 +E4)cosh a1cos a2 (a1cosh a1sin a2 - a2 sinh a1cos a2) =0 (22) For the case of a cantilevered beam with a tip mass and a directed axial load, the con- dition at the free end is shown in figure 3@). From this figure the equilibrium condition can be written as (23) Comparing this equation with equation (20) shows that the term 77TF4 - ii2 replaces 7Tp4. Thus multiplying equation ( 2 2) by p2 and replacing qTp4 with (qTp4- E2 ) yields the characteristic equation for the beam with a directed axial load. - 2p6 +- 4 2 p k sinh a1 sin a2 - (2p+k4)cosh a1cos a2 +(qT? -x2)(4 +ai)(al cosh al sin a2 - a2 sinh a1cos a2)=0 Mode Shapes For Beams Under Preload The mode shapes for a beam under preload can be determined from equations (12) and one other boundary condition. For example, assume that the nth root of the fre- quency equation is known and is given by Fn. Corresponding to & there will be an 10 h cyln and a! 2n which are obtained by substituting on into equations (10). For the case of a free-free beam, the displacement in the nth mode is given by equation (12a) as a! 2n 2n For the free-free beam case either of equations (14) can be used to determine a relation between An and Bn. Using equation (14a) yields B n =-An F (cash oln - COS CY ) ) (26) X @ln Substituting equations (26) into (25) and arbitrarily setting An =1 will then yield the desired mode shape or eigenfunction for the free-free beam. In a similar manner the mode shapes for the other boundary conditions can be determined. These functions are summarized in the following equations: for free-free and free-pinned beams 2 - @ln C'*X +- n CY 2 2n 11 - - - - -sin for a free-guided beam for a clamped-free beam - - vn(x) =(cash C Y ~ X - COS C Y ~~X ) for clamped-pin and clamped-clamped beams - @ln v,(x) =cosh C Y ~ X ~ ~ - cos C Y - CY2n ~ C Y (27d) ~ for a clamped-guide beam for a guided-guided beam 12 for a guided-pinned beam Vn@ = and for a pinned-pinned beam It can readily be shown that the mode shapes for the cantilevered beams with a tip mass are the same as those given by equation (27~). RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Uniform Beam Under Axial Load To determine the effect of axial load on the natural frequencies of a uniform beam, the characteristic equations (given by eqs. (15a) to (15g) were solved numerically by the method of bisection (ref. 9). In this investigation the axial load ratio P/Pcr was varied between -1 and 1, and the first three lowest frequencies were determined. The results for the fundamental elastic body frequencies are presented in figure 4. The pinned- pinned, guided-guided, and pinned-guided curves in this figure were developed from equations (16) and (17). In this figure the curves for the free-free and clamped-clamped beams appear as a single curve. Although the frequencies for these two cases were not identically equal over the entire range of P/Pcr, the differences could not be shown for the scale used in the figure. The same is true for the free-guided and clamped-guided cases. The variation in frequency as a function of axial load for the first few lower fre- quencies for each uniform beam case is given in figure 5. It can be noted that the var- iation in the second and third frequency for all cases shown is almost linear for the range of P/Pcr considered. These higher mode frequencies will go to zero when the second and third buckling loads are reached. However, these portions of the curves are of no practical interest unless the beam is prevented from buckling in its fundamental mode. To show the effect of axial loading on the mode shapes of the beam, equations (27) were used to determine the modes for P/Pcr =-1.0, 0, and 0. 8. These calculations were normalized, and the results are shown in figures 6 to 12 for the first three modes. These figures indicate that the effect of axial load is greatest on the fundamental mode and that the effect decreases rapidly as the mode number increases. The most 13 pronounced effect occurs for the free-pinned beam i n its fundamental mode (fig. 8(a)). Note, however, that all the cases exhibit this effect as P/PCr approaches 1. Cantilevered Beam With Tip Mass For a cantilevered beam with a tip mass equation (22) was solved for the case of a constant axial load and equation (24) for an axial load directed through the root of the beam. The method of solution of these equations was the same as that used for the uni- form beams. The effects of both tip mass ratio, qT =J T/.AB, and axial load ratio P/PCr on the fundamental frequencies were determined, and the results are shown in figures 13 to 16. Figure 13 shows the variation in the frequency parameters g; iK as a function of tip mass ratio, qT, for values of P/PCr between -1 and 0. 8. Note that 8 4 s equals w1 d W E I , so that the frequency parameter for this case is related to the total mass of the system and not just the beam mass. Figure 14 shows the same data plotted as a function of axial load ratio with the tip mass ratio as a param- eter. Figures 15 and 16 are a similar set of graphs for the cantilever with a directed axial load.
