  • Abstract
    A method for asymptotically computing the in-plane eigenfrequencies for the general two-dimensional beam structure is presented. The method allows dissipative joints between the beams. Calculations are then performed to find the vibrations for an example beam structure. The results are of interest in connection with the construction of large space structure, such as a large communication satellite or a space platform
