Abstract

The dynamics response and power flow propagation in the L-shaped beam with finite dimension were investigated. A L-shaped beam dynamic model was established on the basis of Timoshenko beam theory (TBT) and Euler-Bernoulli beam theory (EBT). The analytical solution was obtained and the beam flexural and longitudinal motion was described by using the traveling wave approach. The effects of shear distortion and rotary inertia on the total power flow and its components were examined. Results shown that the structure resonant frequencies are obviously affected by the shear distortion and rotary inertia, especially for the medium and high frequency ranges. The power flow amplitude is obviously increased on the premise of considering the longitudinal vibration. Consequently, the longitudinal vibration should be considered for the power flow and its components in the L-shaped beam.
