Popis: [EN] Hierarchic shear deformable structural element formulations possess the advantage of being intrinsically free from transverse shear locking, that is they avoid transverse shear locking a priori through reparametrization of the kinematic variables. This reparametrization results in shear deformable beam, plate and shell formulations with distinct transverse shear degrees of freedom. The basic idea of selective mass scaling within explicit dynamic analyses is to scale down the highest frequencies in order to increase the critical time step size, while keeping the low frequency modes mostly unaffected. In most concepts, this comes at the cost of nondiagonal mass matrices. In this contribution, we present first investigations on selective mass scaling for hierarchic formulations. Since hierarchic structural formulations possess distinct transverse shear degrees of freedom, they offer the intrinsic ability for selective scaling of the high frequency shear modes, while keeping the bending dominated low frequency modes mostly unaffected. The proposed instrinsically selective mass scaling concept achieves high accuracy, which is typical for selective mass scaling schemes, but in contrast to existing concepts it retains the simplicity of a conventianl mass scaling method and preserves the diagonal structure of a lumped mass matrix. As model problem, we study frequency spectra of different isogeometric Timoshenko beam formulations for a simply supported beam. We discuss the effects of transverse shear parametrization, locking and mass lumping on the accuracy of results.
