Hey there
I need to find the natural frequency of a Cantilever Beam. The beam is tapered in breadth, but has a uniform thickness. So basically the end goal is an equation for f as a function of the angle of the side cut.
Clamped at one end
L=constant
B=changes though the length of the beam and is dependent on the angle from the z axis (along the beam)
H=constant (thickness)
E constant,
So obviously the second moment of area will be a function of x or angle.
The end equation will be used in MATLAB to for a plot angle vs frequency
Any pointers, or a solution would be most helpful,
Thanks for your time
