Modal Frequency Analysis of Wired Automotive Frame using Abaqus
VerifiedAI Summary
This paper discusses the importance of modal frequency analysis in determining the vibration characteristics of a structure subjected to fluctuating loads. It explains the theory and terminology of modal analysis and the use of Abaqus software to determine eigenvalues and mode shapes. The paper presents the results of experiments conducted to determine the vibration frequency of the first mode of vibration of a wired automotive frame with and without a concentrated mass attached. It also discusses the displacement of the structure when loaded at the opposite end with a known load. The paper concludes with a summary of the findings.
