Impact of Different Components and Boundary Conditions on the Eigenfrequencies of a Magnet–Girder Assembly

Synchrotron radiation facilities are very important in different areas of fundamental and applied science to investigate structures or processes at small scales. Magnet–girder assemblies play a key role for the performance such accelerator machines. High structural eigenfrequencies magnet–girder required assure sufficient particle beam stability. The objective present parametric study was numerically quantify impact boundary conditions components on eigenfrequencies. As case studies, two 3 m long girder designs following specifications PETRA IV project DESY (German Electron Synchrotron, Hamburg, Germany) were selected. assembly achieved by, e.g., positioning magnets close upper surface, increasing connection stiffness between bases, support points as high possible shape large triangle. Comparing E/ρ ratio (E: Young’s modulus, ρ: material density) materials used first approach evaluate application girder. Based findings, general principles recommended be considered future design development processes.
