Abstract
The forced motion of a viscoelastic Timoshenko beam was investigated over wide ranges of the parameters involved. Based on the results thus produced, a method was developed for the derivation of both extensional and shear complex moduli of the beam material from the same specimen when vibrated at two different lengths. It was found that after a proper parameter study, it was easy to seek for solutions at relatively low cost, e.g. as expressed in computer time. Further, it was found that the so-called “forced vibration methods” for the determination of the complex moduli of viscoelastic materials are practically operative in the area of resonance, where the effect of damping is predominant. Other effects such as of Poisson's ratio of the beam material and the mass of the driving device were investigated.
