| description | This paper deals with the modal analysis of optimized trapezoidal stiffened plates with simple supported conditions on the four edges of the base plate. The main objective of the finite element analysis is to investigate the natural frequencies and mode shapes of some stiffened structures subjected to lateral pressure and uniaxial compression in order to identify any potentially dangerous frequencies and eliminate the failure possibilities. The natural frequencies and mode shapes are important parameters in the design of stiffened plates for dynamic loading conditions. In this study, the numerical analysis is performed for such a design of this kind of welded plates which have already been optimized for lateral pressure and uniaxial compression. The objective function of the optimization to be minimized performed with the Excel Solver program is the cost function which contains material and fabrication costs for Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) welding technology. In this study, the eigenvalue extraction used to calculate the natural frequencies and mode shapes is based on the Lanczos iteration methods using the Abaqus software. The structure is made of two grades of steel, which are described with different yield stress while all other material properties of the steels in the isotropic elastic model remain the same. Drawing the conclusion from finite element analysis, this circumstance greatly affects the result. |
