Abstract

The paper delineates the procedure to assess probable failure sections through the dynamic conditions of a vertically tapered frame using the experimental modal analysis (EMA), which is validated through the finite element analysis (FEA). The modal parameters are experimentally determined by the frequency response functions (FRFs) using the accelerometer, force transducer, electro-dynamic shaker, dynamic signal analyzer (DSA) and post processed by the ME’Scope software. The ANSYS Workbench 14 was used for finding the modal parameters through the FEA. The FEA model was also tested by convergence study. The boundary conditions of the vertically tapered frame in the FEA is kept similar to the EMA. The values obtained by the two methods have been compared for their proximity.
