The applicability of the effective medium theory to the dynamics of cellular beams

The applicability and the limitations of the effective medium assumption for the dynamics of cellular beams are studied. Beams made of uniform triangular and regular hexagonal cells are analysed. The natural frequencies and modal distributions are calculated using the detailed finite element model o...
