Looking for a tech. paper (nat. freqs. of auto bodies)
(OP)
Fellow engineers,
I'm interested in variability of vehicle natural frequencies due to manufacturing differences on an assembly line.
I remember seeing an applicable paper cited a few years ago, but can't find the source. I think it was an SAE paper from the mid-1990's. (No, the SAE website search, and google, et.al. hasn't helped.)
The paper discussed results of several dozen modal tests of similar vehicles.
Any leads?
Thanks,
-Bill Shust, P.E.
