free vibration analysis of a thin-walled beam with shear sensitive material

This paper presents a method for a free vibration analysis of a thin-walled beam of doubly asymmetric cross section filled with shear sensitive material. In the study, first of all, a dynamic transfer matrix method was obtained for planar shear flexure and torsional motion. Then, uncoupled angular frequencies were obtained by using dynamic element transfer matrices and boundary conditions. Coupled frequencies were obtained by the well-known two-dimensional approaches. At the end of the study, a sample taken from the literature was solved, and the results were evaluated in order to test the convenience of the method.
