The purpose of the present study is to investigate the effect of the different parameters of the elastic supports upon which a deformable beam lies, upon the natural frequencies of the system.
The influence of support parameters is obtained by exploiting characteristic transcendental equations. The natural flexural vibrations of the beam are only affected by the stiffness of the supports over a very restricted range; outside this range the frequencies are those of a completely free beam or of a beam supported by two simple rigid supports (infinite stiffness).
