Natural frequency obtained from the FE analysis.
| Case | Natural frequency in lateral mode (Hz) | Natural frequency in torsional mode (Hz) | Without SSI | With SSI | % change | Without SSI | With SSI | % change |
| Torsionally uncoupled | 3.26 | 2.30 | 29.40 | 4.48 | 3.31 | 26.20 | Torsionally coupled | er = 0.05 | 3.11 | 2.21 | 28.91 | 4.32 | 3.35 | 22.53 | er = 0.15 | 2.75 | 2.00 | 27.52 | 4.05 | 3.24 | 19.93 |
