Abstract The quadrature method (OM) has been used in structural analysis only in recent years. In this study, OM is applied to flexural vibration analysis of a geometrically nonlinear beam. The numerical results by OM agree with the results by the finite element method. It is believed that this is the first attempt to solve a nonlinear dynamic problem by the quadrature method.
