Abstract
The development and details of the computer code HLXVIB are presented as a viable means to assess the dynamic structural response of prismat ic circular helicoidal bars. To this end, the development of the dynam ic transport (transfer) matrix T-RL(RL) is first outlined for a typica l helicoidal segment. Then, the implementation of the resulting matrix in the program HLXVIB is discussed to emphasize particular attractive features of the program. Several parametric studies are presented to illustrate the application of the program to studying the vibration ch aracteristics of circular helicoidal bars as one type of the more gene ral class of three-dimensional bars.
