Abstract
Analysis of transverse vibration of beams is presented in this paper. Unfortunately, complexities which appear in solving differential equation of transverse vibration of non-uniform beams, limit analytical solution to some special cases, so that the numerical method is presented. DTM is a numerical method for solving linear and some non-linear, ordinary and partial differential equations. In this paper, this technique has been applied for solving differential equation of transverse vibration of conical Euler-Bernoulli beam. Natural circular frequencies and mode shapes have been calculated. Comparing results with the cases which exact solution have been presented, shows that DTM is a strong method especially for solving quasi-linear differential equations.
