Eigenfrequency analysis of a panel with a bead

Home » Knowledge » Implicit » Guideline Examples » Eigenfrequency analysis of a panel with a bead

A panel is fully constrained at one edge, see Figure 22. The example keyword file is eigen001.key. The lowest eigenfrequency is 44.3 Hz, and the mode shape is a side-to-side swinging motion.

Example Files: eigen001
