Analysis of the natural characteristics of fiber-reinforced cantilever beams using 8-node solid elements

A combined theoretical and experimental approach is employed to investigate the dynamic characteristics of fiber-reinforced cantilever beams. An 8-node element method establishes the theoretical model of the cantilever beam, allowing for the determination of its dynamic properties. A relevant experimental platform is constructed to test the fiber-reinforced cantilever beams, thereby validating the accuracy of the theoretical model. The results indicate that the theoretical model accurately predicts the dynamic characteristics of fiber-reinforced cantilever beams. Finally, based on the established theoretical model, the effects of cantilever beam length, width, and elastic modulus on the dynamic characteristics of the cantilever beam are discussed.
