“…In recent years, research studies have shown much interest in applying He’s VIM to solve the free vibration problem of beams (Asoor et al, 2016; Chen et al, 2015; Chen et al, 2020; Heidari-Rarani et al, 2017; Lu and Ma, 2018; Martin, 2019; Mohammadian, 2017; Tazabekova et al, 2018; Torabi et al, 2018; Younesian et al, 2012; Yun-dong and Yi-ren, 2017). The first study that used the VIM to obtain the eigenvalues and mode shapes of a Bernoulli–Euler beam with several end conditions was introduced by Liu and Gurram (2009).…”
