Abstract

The vibration of a cantilever beam with constant thickness and linearly tapered sides is solved using a novel accurate, efficient initial value numerical method. The effects of tip mass, base fixity, and taper on the natural frequencies are determined. This geometrically anisotropic beam vibrates in a mixture of modes in two perpendicular directions.
