Transverse Vibration in Beam

Dunkerley’s Method
Torsional Vibration Critical Speed of Shaft Dunkerley’s Method

A rotating shaft carries different mountings and accessories in the

form of gears, pulleys, etc.

When the gears or pulleys are put on the shaft, the center of gravity
of the pulley or gear does not coincide with the center line of the
bearings or with the axis of the shaft, when the shaft is stationary,
called as eccentricity.

When shaft rotates, the shaft is subjected to centrifugal force. This

force will bent the shaft and increase the distance of center of gravity
of the pulley or gear from the axis of rotation.

The speed at which the shaft starts vibrating violently in a direction

perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the shaft is known as Critical
Speed of Shaft

In fig 5.8.1 (b) to (e) shows only point forces taking one load at a time. The
corresponding natural frequency of these individual system are fn1, fn2,
fn3 and fns

As per the Dunkerley’s Method natural frequency of transverse vibration is

Calculate ωn

Natural frequency of system is
