Abstract: | Owing to the advantages of noncontact and fullfield measurement, an optical system called the amplitude fluctuation electronic
speckle pattern interferometry (AFESPI) method with an out-of-plane setup is employed to investigate the vibration of a cantilever
square plate with a crack emanating from one edge. Based on the fact that clear fringe patterns will be shown by the AFESPI
method only at resonant frequencies, both the resonant frequencies and the vibration mode shapes can be obtained experimentally
at the same time. Three different crack locations will be discussed in detail in this study. One is parallel to the clamped
edge, and the other two are perpendicular to the clamped edge. The numerical finite element calculations are compared with
the experimental results, and good agreement is obtained for resonant frequencies and mode shapes. The influences of crack
locations and lengths on the vibration behavior of the clamped cantilever plate are studied in terms of the dimensionless
frequency parameter (λ
2) versus crack length ratio (a/L). The authors find that if the crack face displacements are out of phase, a large value of stress intensity factor may be
induced, and the cracked plate will be dangerous from the fracture mechanics point of view. However, there are some resonant
frequencies for which the crack face displacements are completely in phase, causing a zero stress intensity factor, and the
cracked plate will be safe. |
