Effects of shear deformations on the vibrational frequencies of wide-flanged structures

<p>The well-known Timoshenko beam equations (which include transverse shear deformation and rotary inertia effects) are extended for a wide-flanged structure to include the additional shear lag deformation of the flanges; thus, cross-sections of the beam are allowed to distort instead of r...
