Current situation:

1.49Hz, mode shape seen above in North south direction. It is also 1.93Hz for vibration in the E- direction. !re"uenc# should be above 4Hz ideall#.

Guides added to support under Tee

!re"uenc# is 1.$%Hz in N-& direction. &hould be improved if possible.

With guides added on vertical leg as per previous stress analysis snapshot

'.13Hz alon( N-& direction. )ut I thin* this is not realistic since friction +ill (reatl# reduce this movement and vibration.

Guides in both directions added to existing support under elbow. Guides added to support under tee

!re"uenc# is '.,,Hz in E-

direction. Not realistic due to friction.

Guides added to support under Tee and on vertical leg

-his (ives fre"uenc# of '.9.Hz. )ut a(ain, I thin* this is not realistic as friction +ill not allo+ pipe to move a/iall# as is e/a((erated in the picture above. I feel this is the best solution. ith friction effects, I +ould (uess that this fre"uenc# should be more than 4Hz. 0nfortunatel#, there does not seem to be an option in -rifle/ to include friction effects in d#namic anal#sis. &o +e cannot (et actual value. 1lso, addin( (rip 0-bolts +ill help +ith an# vibrations a/iall#.
