Euler Bernoulli to second order ode

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the application of Euler-Bernoulli beam theory to model the dynamic behavior of cantilever beams, specifically when analyzing the tip movement under base excitation at the first eigenmode frequency. It is established that the cantilever beam can be effectively simplified to a spring-mass system for this analysis. A reference paper, "Final Project Cantilever," is provided as a resource for further understanding and proofs related to this simplification.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Euler-Bernoulli beam theory
  • Familiarity with eigenvalues and eigenmodes in structural dynamics

hello,
I have read in a number of papers that if we have a cantilever beam and are only interested in the movement of the tip when the base is being excited at the frequency of the first eigen mode , then the whole beam can be replaced by a spring mass system. Can anyone tell me of a paper or book where this is actually proved?

Thanks.
