Abstract
The main theme of this project is to perform Free Free Vibration analysis on
Typical Missile Configuration. The Geometric model of the missile is developed
in Catia and the Computational Modal analysis is performed on it with Free-Free
Boundary conditions.
The Geometric model is then Fabricated and Experimental Modal analysis is
performed on it with free-free Boundary condition.
The Computational and experimental frequencies are compared and
corresponding mode shapes are identified.
Introduction
The first step in performing a dynamic analysis is determining the natural frequencies
and mode shapes of the structure with damping neglected.
The deformed shape of the structure at a specific natural frequency of vibration is
termed its normal mode of vibration.
Each mode is associated with a specific natural frequency.
It is entirely possible for a structure to have multiple modes at the same frequency.
An example is a beam with a symmetrical cross-section, clamped at one end: The first
two bending mode shapes will be at the same frequency. However, the mode-shape will
be in different planes.
Experimental Setup
Fabricated model is held free- free by
handing it using bungee cords as shown in
figure as side
Impact hammer test Is performed and data
is collected from the three accelerometers
of which two are one - directional and one
is three directional.
The SO analyzer software is used to read
collect and post process the data.
The Frequency response plot is obtained
and various frequencies are obtained.
For the obtained frequencies the Mode
shapes are observed and compared with the
Ansys results.
