Lup-Like Cantilever Beam for Small Deflection

A lup-like cantilever beam are discussed in this work. For small deflection it can be approximated as a spring-mass system with certain spring constant whose effective mass is larger than the usual constant rectangular cross section cantilever beam. A new parameter $β$ is introduced to relates some the properties of lup-like cantilever beam to the usual one. Influence of beam witdh $B_0$ and head width $B_t$ to value of $β$ is also presented.
