Crack detection of cantilever beam by natural frequency tracking using experimental and finite element analysis

The investigation of a crack in a cantilever beam is very imperative in various mechanical applications such as turbo machinery impeller blades, propeller shafts and airplane wings. As a result, a full study is performed in this paper to investigate the crack consequences on a cantilever beam; this...
