Abstract
An analytical procedure to estimate both the natural frequencies and m ode shapes of thin-walled members is presented using the transfer matr ix method. The transfer matrix is derived from the differential equati ons of the plate panel of thin-walled members. The proposed method giv es exact natural frequencies and mode shapes of thin-walled members. T hus the vibration phenomenon of such members can be clarified exactly. Some numerical examples are presented to illustrate the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method.
