Modal and Harmonic Analysis of a Cantilver Beam with Differrent Cross-Sections

Modal analysis helps to determine the system frequencies and to obtain the eigen modes of various structural members subjected to vibration. In this research, modal analysis and harmonic analysis of a cantilever beam with different sections of same weight and material i.e., rectangle, T-section and I-section are carried out using ANSYS software to see the mode shapes and to observe the dynamic response of the cantilever beam and to identify the best configuration of the beam.
