The Effect of Length on Modal Analysis of Cantilever Beam with and without Piezoelectric

The fundamental technique to determine the dynamic characteristic of engineering structures is the modal analysis. From the modal analysis can determine the natural frequencies and mode shapes. The natural frequencies and mode shapes are determined through finite element modeling (FEM) using ANSYS APDL 15.0 (ANSYS Parametric Design Language).
