CALCULATOR MODULE : Beam Natural Vibration Frequency ±
Calculate the damped and undamped beam natural vibration frequency for general beams (simply supported, fixed, and cantilever beams). For other beam types (eg circular beams) refer to the module links below. The lateral natural vibration frequency beam end conditions are: pinned ends (simply supported beams), fixed ends, free fixed ends (cantilever beams), pinned fixed ends, and for beams with no load, pinned free ends, and free ends (unsupported beams). Added mass should be included for submerged or wet beams. The added mass coefficient can be calculated in accordance with DNVGL RP F105. The submerged natural frequency is calculated for still water conditions, with no vortex shedding. For beams on a soft foundation such as soil, use the effective length factor to allow for movement at the beam ends. For defined beam ends such as structures, the effective length factor should be set to one. The buckling load can be calculated using either the Euler equation (suitable for long beams), or the Johnson equation (suitable for short beams). The buckling load is dependent on the end type, and is used for mode 1 vibration only. Buckling normally occurs on the axis with lowest stiffness (I1 or I2). The bending stiffness for vibration and buckling can be defined separately for cases where vibration and buckling are not parallel. `fn = ca.cd k / (2 π) √((EI) / (m . Le^4)) `
`ca =1 / (1 + F / (Fb))) `
`cd = √(1 - fd^2) ` where : fn = lateral natural frequency [Hz]
ca = axial load coefficient
cd = damping coefficient
fd = damping factor (0 = undamped 1 = critical damping)
k = mode factor
L = effective beam length
EI = beam E I (bending modulus)
m = beam unit mass or mass per length
F = axial load (+ve in tension and -ve in compression)
Fb = buckling load The longitudinal natural vibration frequency end conditions are: free fixed ends (cantilever), fixed ends, and free ends (unsupported). The fixed ends and free ends modes have the same natural frequencies, but different mode shapes. The longitudinal natural frequency is independent of cross section, and depends on the beam elastic modulus and density. `fn = cd k / (2 π L) √(E / ρ) ` where : fn = natural frequency [Hz]
cd = damping coefficient
k = mode factor
L = beam length
E = beam elastic modulus
ρ = beam density The torsional natural vibration frequency end conditions are: free fixed ends (cantilever), fixed ends, and free ends (unsupported). The fixed ends and free ends modes have the same natural frequencies, but different mode shapes. The torsional natural frequency is independent of cross section, and depends on the beam shear modulus and density. `fn = cd k / (2 π L) √(G / ρ) ` where : fn = natural frequency [Hz]
cd = damping coefficient
k = mode factor
L = beam length
G = beam shear modulus
ρ = beam density The mode factor k is dependent on the mode number, and the beam end type. The k factors have been taken from the Shock and Vibration handbook. The damping factor should be set to zero for undamped vibration or set greater than zero and less than or equal to one for damped vibration.

For longitudinal and torsional vibration, the natural frequency is independent of the cross section, and the general beam calculators can be used. The mode factor k is dependent on the mode number, and the beam end type. The k factors have been taken from the Shock and Vibration handbook. The damping factor should be set to zero for undamped vibration or set greater than zero and less than or equal to one for damped vibration.

CALCULATOR MODULE : Beam Bending ±
Calculate beam bending shear force, bending moment, slope and deflection for general beams using the Euler Bernoulli beam equation. The Euler Bernoulli beam equation is suitable for slender beams (it does not include the effect of shear), and for small angles (θ < 0.5 rad). The calculations are not valid past the beam end points. For combined loads, the shear force, bending moment, slope and deflection are assumed to be additive. The beam end conditions are of the form left end - right end (for example Pin-Fix is left end pinned and right end fixed). All distances are measured from the left end of the beam. Beam end types include: free fixed (cantilever), guided fixed, pinned fixed, fixed fixed (built in or fixed), pinned pinned (simply supported), and guided pinned beam ends. Combined loads include axial loads, point loads, distributed loads, weight loads, concentrated moments, angular displacements, lateral displacements, and uniform temperature gradient. For beams with compressive axial loads the bending moment, slope and deflection tend to infinity as the axial load tends to the buckling load. For tension loads, the bending moment, slope and deflection decrease with increasing tension. The buckling load can be calculated using either the Euler equation (suitable for long beams), the Johnson equation (suitable for short beams), or the buckling load equation can be determined from the transition length. The effective length factor should be used for beams on a soft foundation such as soil, where the beam ends are poorly defined. For defined beam ends, such as structures, the effective length factor should be set to one (fe = 1). Use the Result Plot option to plot the bending moment, shear force, slope, deflection and stress versus position x. Refer to the figures and help pages for more details.

The concrete stiffness factor is calculated from the ratio of concrete EI over beam EI in accordance with DNVGL RP F105. The method is suitable for circular beams and pipes. For other profile shapes engineering judgement is required. The stress check includes longitudinal stress, Tresca combined stress, and von Mises equivalent stress. The bending stress is calculated at the pipe mid wall. The hoop stress is calculated using the Barlow mid wall equation with the nominal wall thickness. : `Sh = (P - Pe) (OD - tn) / (2 tn) ` where : Sh = hoop stress

CALCULATOR MODULE : API 5L Line Pipe Mass Tolerance ±
Calculate API 5L line pipe unit mass (mass per length) and total mass from diameter, wall thickness and density. Pipe mass can be calculated with API 5l tolerances, or as mass schedule with no tolerances. Tolerances can be calculated from API 5L, or specified as either a mass allowance or a mass fraction. To calculate mass per joint, enter the joint length as the pipe length. For construction quantities, enter the total pipe length as the pipe length. The API 5L negative tolerance is reduced if the total mass is greater than 18 tonne. References : API 5L : Specification for Line Pipe (2007)

CALCULATOR MODULE : AS 2885.1 Pipeline Fluid Volume And Mass ±
Calculate AS 2885.1 pipeline fluid volume and fluid mass for two phase gas liquid piping, and three phase black oil piping (gas water and oil). The two phase fluid calculator can be used for single phase gas, single phase liquid, or two phase gas and liquid. The three phase black oil calculator can be used for single phase oil, single phase water, two phase oil and water, and three phase oil, water and gas. Water cut is the volume fraction of water in the liquid phase (ignoring the gas phase). Gas oil ratio (GOR) is the ratio of gas moles to liquid volume (ignoring the water phase). Gas moles are commonly measured as gas volume at standard conditions, eg SCM (Standard Conditions Meter) or SCF (Standard Conditions Feet).
