Hello,
I have a simple cantilever beam on which I am performing a modal analysis.In the general post processing stage , I was wondering as to what moments and shear forces represent with respect to each natural frequency.
Do they represent the reaction that the beam goes through when it is vibrated at its natural frequency.

Thanks,
Sudeep
