LAMINATED IRON CORE ELASTIC MATRIX DETERMINATION METHOD AND VIBRATION ANALYSIS METHOD

An elastic matrix determination method for a laminated iron core, which can optimally determine a shear modulus in two planes including a laminating direction of the laminated iron core included in an elastic matrix in a constitutive equation representing a stress-strain relationship used for vibration analysis, and also provided is a vibration analysis method. When performing a vibration analysis of a laminated iron core formed by laminating steel sheets using a constitutive equation representing a stress-strain relationship in a matrix representation, a shear modulus in two planes including a laminating direction of the laminated iron core included in an elastic matrix in the constitutive equation is determined depending on an average tightening pressure in the laminating direction of the laminated iron core.
