The Vibration Analysis Based on Experimental and Finite Element Modeling for Investigating the Effect of a Multi-Notch Location of a Steel Plate

Abstract

Vibration is challenging and significant in solving engineering problems. The issue of vibration in loaded objects by utilizing a three-dimensional model and experiments. Typically, an object is subjected to a random frequency, which changes the notch shape depending on the frequency model. The investigations determined the performance difference by conducting modal analysis with the finite element method and examining the various forms of each mode. We simulated metal plates with V notch and multiple notch locations on both sides and one side of the notch. The test kits included an accelerometer and a force sensor for correcting the national frequency via Simulink Matlab® and verifying the result from the finite element methods. The V-shaped vibration testing provided significant insights into its accuracy and potential for predicting damage and fracture through experimentation and the finite element method. The tested specimen analyzed the behavior of two models and found that the two V-shaped exhibited varying natural frequency values. Specifically, the double-sided V-shaped increased natural frequency, whereas the single-sided notched V-shaped cutting showed a significant decrease in natural frequency. Accordingly, this investigative approach, the result of the experiment, and the finite element shows that correlation disposition can be utilized to forecast various random frequencies for vibration analysis.
