Chapter 2 Single Degree-of-Freedom Vibration: Undamped Vibration Problems for Section 2.2 — Deterministic Modeling 1. The beam in Figure 2.30 vibrates as a result of loading not shown. State the necessary assumptions to reduce this problem to a one degree-of-freedom oscillator. Then derive the equation of motion.

Figure 2.30: Vibrating beam supported by springs.

Solution: In order for the system to be approximated by a one-DOF oscillator, one spatial coordinate is required to define its location. We need to assume that (i) the beam does not deform but moves as a rigid body, and (ii) the deflection at each end of the beam is the same, implying a symmetric loading (or only a moment is applied and the rotation at one end is equal and opposite to that at the other end). Under these limitations, a SDOF system can be used to model this behavior. Let  () be the external force acting upward on the beam. Then, using Newton’s second law, X 2   =  () − 2 =  2  2   2 + 2 =  ()  1

2. If a beam is supported continuously on a foundation, as shown in Figure 2.31, damping must be added to an idealized model to represent the viscous effects of the mat foundation. How would you idealize this system as a one degree-of-freedom oscillator? Derive the equation of motion.

Figure 2.31: Vibrating beam on mat foundation.

Solution: To be modeled as a one DOF system, it must be possible to describe the motion using one coordinate. We assume the beam is rigid and does not deform. We also assume that the mat behaves uniformly and has the same effect along the whole beam. Finally, the loading must be symmetrical so that the beam will translate only (although a pure rotation instead is also a possible single behavior). Given these assumptions, the equivalent system is the single mass oscillating in a vertical direction, where  is the equivalent total stiffness of the mat, and  is the total damping of the mat. Let  () be the displacement, and  () be the external force defined positive upward. The force must be distributed uniformly to avoid rotation. Then, ↑

Then, the total displacement can be written as  () =  () +   Upon substituting this into the equation of motion, we obtain 

3. An idealized one degree-of-freedom model is tested many times in order to estimate its natural frequency. It is relatively straightforward to measure its mass , but stiffness  can only be measured approximately. How might one use the natural frequency data to estimate ? Solution: If we have test data on the natural frequency    and we know  we can then use this data to estimate the value of  by using the average frequency   in the equation  = 2  How do we get the frequency data? By weighing the object, we can obtain the mass  =  where  is the weight. Then we hang the weight on the spring, displace it and measure the period. This is actually the damped period. However, if damping is small, the undamped period,  will be approximately equal to the damped period. Then   = 2 From this we have  again.

4. The cantilever beam in Figure 2.32 undergoes harmonic oscillation, being driven at its free end by a force of amplitude  and nominal frequency . An examination of a long timehistory of the response shows slight fluctuations about an exact harmonic response. If we divide this long time-history into segments of one period (2) and superpose these, we obtain the set of curves shown in Figure 2.33. How serious are such fluctuations in the response of the beam? Is there a way to relate the magnitude of the fluctuation to the maximum response? What would be a reasonable way to specify the value of ?

Figure 2.32: Cantilever beam.

Figure 2.33: Overlapping time-histories.

Solution: These fluctuations do not seem significant based on a qualitative assessment of deviations, although there may be applications where the variations in loading might be important. For most applications, the beam motion is not heavily dependent on such minor deviations. We may quantify the magnitude of the fluctuations by measuring the amplitudes at one instant of time. For example, at one instant of time, the largest and smallest amplitudes might be  and   The fluctuation at this instant is defined as ∆ = ( −  ) We can obtain a measure of the importance of the fluctuation by relating it to the amplitude of the response  : ∆ Then, ∆ × 100 provides a percent fluctuation. A small percent signifies minor fluctuations. The frequency  can be estimated from the curves by averaging the periods and then using the average period  to calculate the frequency  = 2  

(a) What is the frequency of oscillation in Hz of the block in the  direction if it is displaced slightly in this direction? (b) What is the period of oscillation in the  direction if the block is displaced slightly in this direction?

Figure 2.43: A suspended block. Solution: (a) This is the case when the block oscillates on the  plane. The corresponding free-body diagram is shown below, where the tension  is assumed the same in both cables due to symmetry.

Derive the equation of motion for a uniform stiff rod restrained from vertical motion by a torsional spring of stiffness  and two translational springs each of stiffness  as shown in Figure 2.46. The torsional spring constant is determined by the application of a moment  and the measurement of the angular displacement  that is,  =  Calculate the natural frequency of oscillation.

Assume that the dimension of the torsional spring is negligible. Let  be the mass of the rod. Assume  is defined positive clockwise. The free-body diagram is shown below.

We assume small displacements of the end. In this way we can assume that essentially the springs remain vertical.

Note that the stiffness of the second system is reduced √ by a factor of four compared to case (a). Then, the natural frequency is reduced by a factor of 4 or two. This will increase the period by a factor of two. The period of the second system is 3 s.

Note that we could have omitted  from the free-body diagram if we measure the deflection from static equilibrium.

19. A solid cylinder floating in equilibrium in a liquid of specific gravity  is depressed slightly and released. A schematic is shown in Figure 2.50. Find the equilibrium position and solve for the natural frequency of oscillation assuming the cylinder remains upright at all times. Suppose the assumption that the cylinder remains upright is not reasonable. Then what difficulties do you foresee in the calculations, and how might they be resolved?

Figure 2.50: Solid body oscillating in a liquid.

Solution: We know from Archimedes’ principle that for a body immersed in a fluid, a buoyancy force acts in the opposite direction of gravity with a magnitude equal to the product of displaced volume and mass density of fluid. For water this mass density equals  = 64  3  The displaced volume equals 2  where  is the length of the cylinder that is immersed. We assume the cylinder remains vertical as it oscillates. The mass of the cylinder is 2  where  is the length of the cylinder and  is the mass density of the cylinder. The equilibrium position  is given by the following calculations: we equate the buoyancy force to the weight of the cylinder:

 =      = (2 )     =  2

The forces in the vertical direction are those due to gravity: the weight of the cylinder and the buoyancy force. If the oscillation is taken about the equilibrium position, weight can be ignored. The buoyancy force acts like a spring force. Newton’s second law of motion in the vertical direction is given by X

CHAPTER 2 SDOF VIBRATION: AN INTRODUCTION

In standard form this EOM becomes ̈ +   = 0 or ̈ + ( ) = 0 The specific gravity is the ratio of the density of a fluid to the density of water. If the cylinder does not remain vertical during oscillation, then in addition to vertical oscillations there will be rotational oscillations and the restoring force will be more complicated to evaluate.

Solution: The coordinates, 1 and  are not related kinematically. For example it is possible to move the pulley up by the distance 1 while keeping it from rotating or setting  to zero. Similarly, it is possible to rotate the pulley while keeping it from moving up and down. On the other hand, 2 is related to both 1 and  We can find this relationship by obtaining the contribution toward 2 from 1 and  individually. Letting  = 0 we see that moving the pulley up by 1 upward will lower the mass also by 1  That is, 2 (while keeping  = 0) = 1  Letting 1 = 0, we also see that rotating the pulley by  will also lower the mass by  That is, 2 (while keeping 1 = 0) =  Then, 2 = 1 + 

(1)

Next, we find the stretches in the springs. We find the individual contribution from 1 and  separately. We find that the stretch in 2 is simply 1  and the stretch in 1 is  − 1  2 = 1 1 =  − 1  The next step is to draw free-body diagrams for the pulley and the mass, and write down Newton’s second law for the vertical direction. The free-diagrams are shown next.

It is also possible to use the following free-body diagram,

Summing the moment about the center of the pulley, we find that P ª  =   − 1 ( − 1 )  =  ̈ where  = 0 if we assume that the pulley has negligible mass and  = 1 ( − 1 ) or the tensions on either side of the pulley are the same. Summing the forces in the vertical direction for the pulley, we obtain 21 ( − 1 ) − 2 1 =  ̈1 = 0

Then, we find that 1 and  are related by

For small oscillations, the period equals  . Suppose the pendulum swings with an amplitude of angle  from the vertical. Find the force exerted on the hinge when the pendulum is (a) at its maximum rotation and (b) at its vertical position.

35. A bifilar pendulum of length 2 is suspended with two vertical strings, each of length , as shown in Figure 2.64. (Bifilar means fitted with or involving the use of two threads or wires.) Assuming small rotation of the strings, such that the bar is essentially horizontal with half its weight supported by each string, show that the period is s  2   =  3

Figure 2.64: A bifilar compound pendulum. Solution: Note that if we assume that the bar moves as a pendulum in plane, then the EOM will be the same as that for a simple pendulum, and therefore, the period is s  2  = 2  =   Therefore, the problem refer to the period of the out-of-plane motion shown below.

Out-of-plane oscillation of a bifilar pendulum. Let us visualize the motion: the bar begins to rotate about its centerline, and as it rotates its ends also raise. However, we assume that this raising can be neglected if the angle of rotation out of the plane of the paper  is small. By neglecting the motion in the  direction, we can also approximate the tension in the each string as 2 For a small angle of rotation, the tension in each string


65 develops a restoring moment (like a spring). From the free-body diagram below

the restoring moment about the  axis due to the tension in the each string is  .

36. An inverted hinged pendulum with a mass  at the top is suspended between two springs with constants , as shown in Figure 2.65.

Figure 2.65: Stabilized inverted pendulum.

Solution: From the free-body diagram of the mass  we see that a displacement to the right in the  direction results in forces in the opposite sense due to each spring of − sin  each.

Even though we can assume the springs to be horizontal, the motion of the rigid beam with the mass at the end is a rotational motion about the hinge.. Therefore, use Newton’s second law of motion in moment form: X y  =  ̈

where  is the angle of the beam from the vertical and  equals the moment of inertia about the hinge:  =  + 2 ≈ 2 since  is very small when compared to 2  If you are wondering why the rod only transmits tension but not shear, it is because the mass is assumed to have no

If it is displaced very slightly from the vertical, what are the stability characteristics of the system? What kind of motion is expected and what is the equation of motion?

For an inverted pendulum, we expand sin  about  =  The Taylor series of sin  about  =  is − sin  Then, the equation becomes  ̈ −  = 0 

The response is unstable about the equilibrium when it is in upright position. We cannot discuss long term behavior based on the linearized model because the model is valid only near the upright position. However, from energy conservation, we know that the pendulum will not be able to reach a height higher than initial height. If the pendulum is released from 5◦ from the vertical with zero initial velocity, it will oscillate between 5◦ and 355◦ measured from vertical. We can also derive the equation of motion measuring  from the unstable equilibrium position as shown next.

48. Consider a generalization of Example 2.10, where a mass moves to the left with speed  on a platform, disconnected from two springs, as shown in Figure 2.75. Assuming that there is no friction, find the period of oscillation of the mass, given the data: 1 = 36 N/cm, 2 = 18 N/cm,  = 25 kg,  = 30 cm,  = 100 cm, and  = 6 m/s.

49. A block of mass is suspended from the ceiling. The equation of motion is ̈ +  = 0 where  is measured from the static equilibrium position. Assume the initial conditions are (0) = 1 in and ̇(0) = 1 in/s. Solve for the response () for two cases: (a) the spring is assumed massless, and (b) the mass of the spring is included. Plot both solutions and comment on the importance of including the mass of the spring. Assume  = 1 lb and a spring mass that is 10% of the block mass for  = 01, 1, and 10 lb/in. What conclusions can be drawn?

Solution: Massless Spring:  The EOM is given by ̈ +   = 0, and its solution is given by  = 1 cos  + 2 sin  where p  =  We use the initial conditions (0) = 1 in ̇(0) = 1 in/s to find the constants: 1 = 1 2 = 1 Thus, the solution to our differential equation is  = cos  + 1 sin  with  defined as q above. In the amplitude-phase form, we can write  = 1 + (1)2 cos ( − ) 

Mass of Spring Included: The analysis including the mass of spring is identical to that for the massless spring, except we replace  by  =  + 3  where  is the spring mass. The natural frequency is then   = p   and the solution is given by  = cos    + 1 sin    In the amplitude-phase form, we can write =

Note that the units of the mass and stiffness must be converted to slug and lb/ft to obtain the natural frequency in terms of rad/s. (The lbm and slug are related by 1 slug = 32.2 lbm .)

 0 sin    + 0 cos   + [cos  − cos   ]  1 − (  )2

Solution: We begin with our known relationships, namely: ̈ +  2  =  ()  cos   () =  The solution to this equation consists of two parts, the homogeneous and particular solutions, and they are given by  () = 1 cos    + 2 sin     () = 1 cos  The constant coefficients of integration, 1 and 2  are determined when the initial conditions are applied to the total solution. The coefficient for the particular solution must be such that the assumed solution,  ()  satisfies the differential equation.

Solution: Each of these loading cases has a homogeneous response and a particular response. The homogeneous solution is given by  () = 1 cos  + 2 sin  Note that the natural frequency equals 1 rad/s We will only solve for the particular solution below.

(c) In this problem, the loading is at the same frequency as the natural frequency of the system. Since the system is undamped, we know to expect oscillation with unbounded growth.

Resonant response,  () = 05 sin  It should be noted that, in many of the vibration texts, the transient and homogeneous solution are used synonymously, and the steady-state and the particular solution are used synonymously. This is true for a damped system because the homogeneous solution decays with time. In this case, the homogeneous solution is the transient solution. However, in an undamped system, the homogeneous solution persists so that it is no longer the transient response (there is no transient response in an undamped system). This is not a gross error because there is no physical system that is truly undamped. Therefore, from an engineering perspective, the transient and homogeneous solution are the same, and likewise for the steady-state and the particular solutions.

53. For the oscillator that is beating according to the equation ̈ + 16 =

 sin(4 − ) 

where  is small but not equal to zero, what do you expect to happen as  → 0? Relate the rate of growth of the response amplitude to the value of  or to the value of 4 − . Solution: We know from our studies of resonance that a structure loaded harmonically by a force that oscillates at the natural frequency of the structure will oscillate with ever-increasing amplitudes. Therefore, even before analyzing the above governing differential equation, we know that for  = 0 we have a resonance condition. Even for small  we will have large amplitude motion. We can solve the differential equation for the forced response to find:  1  () = sin(4 − )  (4 − )2 − 16 +1 cos 4 + 2 sin 4 ´ ³  4− Applying the initial conditions, we find 1 = 0 and 2 =  −  [4−]2 −16 4 The total solution is given by  () ¶ µ  1 4− = sin 4 sin(4 − ) −  (4 − )2 − 16 4 | {z } forced solution

1 + 0 cos 4 +  sin 4 {z4 } | free solution

The free solution, the part of the solution due to the initial conditions, does not grow with time. In this current form, we can see the term −16 + (4 − )2 in the denominator of the forced response goes to zero as  → 0 resulting in a response of unbounded amplitude given enough time. However, it does not show how the solution behaves in finite time. In order to investigate the behavior of the solution in finite time, look at the term, sin(4 − ) in the forced solution. This term is expanded as cos  sin 4 − sin  cos 4. The terms, cos  sin  sin 4 and cos 4 2 (4 − ) − 16 (4 − )2 − 16

describes sinusoidal functions that oscillates at 4 rad/s and whose magnitude varies slowly with frequency  rad/s. The magnitude of the envelop function is 1/([4 − ]2 − 16) which approaches infinity as  → 0 Therefore, resonance can be thought of beating with an infinite beat period and envelop that grows to infinity in time. In order to investigate how fast the response grows as  → 0 we do the following. Using the method of partial fraction expansion, we write µ ¶ 1 1 1 1 −  = 8 −8  [4 − ]2 − 16

54. The block shown in Figure 2.77 is acted on by the force  () = 100 + 25 sin 75 N and, after the transients have died out, it oscillates with an amplitude of 0.6 mm about a position 55 mm to the right of the static equilibrium position corresponding to the condition when no force is present. What is the mass of the block?

Figure 2.77: Block subjected to external force.

Solution: Let us assume that there is very small damping. It is small enough that the damping can be ignored when the oscillation amplitude is calculated, but the transient response can still die out given time. The new static equilibrium position is (static force) = 100 = 0055 m. Then,  = 1000055 = 18182 N/m. The amplitude of the steady-state solution is given by || =

56. A gantry crane system is shown schematically in Figure 2.78. The crane is a simple pendulum of length  and mass . The gantry oscillates with the displacement () =  sin  If  is very small, what  gives the crane an amplitude of motion equal to 2? Assume  = 1 m.

Figure 2.78: A model of a gantry for a crane. Solution: The amplitude of motion depends on the initial conditions especially if the system is undamped. Let us assume that the system has very small damping so that the transient effects die out.

Solution: At first glance, we know that the system has the natural frequency of 3 rad/s, which coincides with the forcing frequency. Therefore, the response will consist of a harmonic response at the natural frequency of 3 rads/, another harmonic response at the forcing frequency of 1 rad/s, and a harmonic response that grows linearly with time at 3 rad/s.

60. A cylinder of mass  is mounted in a water tunnel as shown in Figure 2.79 with the cylinder axis transverse to the flow direction. When there is no flow, a vertical force of  on the cylinder results in a deflection of . With flow in the tunnel, shedding vortices impart alternating forces on the cylinder. The velocity of the water is  in the  direction, the distance between vortices is , and the magnitude of the lateral forces is   The lateral forces can be modeled by the harmonic function  () =  sin . Find the amplitude of lateral steady-state response of the cylinder.

Figure 2.79: Cross-section of an elastically mounted cylinder excited by shedding vortices.

Solution: This problem can be modeled as a mass supported by a spring as shown below.

It is given that the force  is required to deflect distance . This gives us the stiffness of the leaf spring as  =   It is said that the vortices are shed at every  seconds. This gives us the forcing frequency of  = 2 ()  The equation of motion of the simple model is ̈ +  =  sin  where  is the vertical deflection.

Solution: (a) The oscillator is undamped and vibrates with an amplitude of 1 m with a period of a little more than 6 seconds. It takes about 18.4 s to complete three cycles. Therefore, the natural frequency is   = 2 ' 2(1843) = 102 rad/s Since there is no decay, the equation of motion is ̈ +  2  = 0 The initial displacement is zero.

The free response is given by  () = 0 cos    + 0 sin    With 0 = 0 we see that 0   is the amplitude of vibration. Therefore, the initial velocity is 0 =    = 102 m/s We take the latter value of 102 m/s as the initial velocity. (b) Here, the one additional property is damping. We see the effect of damping in free vibration by the reduced peak amplitude of vibration with each cycle. The initial conditions are the same as above.

10. Coulomb used the following method to determine the viscosity of liquids. A thin plate of weight  is suspended vertically and set into motion, first in air and then fully submerged in the particular liquid as shown in Figure 3.54. The time duration, 1 in air and 2 in the liquid, required for one oscillation is measured. The frictional force between the plate and fluid is estimated as 2, where 2 is the area of both sides of the plate,  is the coefficient of viscosity, and  is the plate velocity. The frictional force between the plate and air is negligible. Find the value of  in terms of the above parameters.

Figure 3.54: Plate suspended in a liquid.

Solution: We have two regimes of behavior. In air, the plate moves without dissipation; there is no damping. In water, there is frictional resistance between the plate and the water. This experiment therefore consists of two parts, one a free vibration in air where there is no dissipation, and the other in water where there is dissipation. Let 1 and 2 be the period of undamped oscillation and the damped period of oscillation, respectively. For the undamped free vibration we have the following:  ̈ +  = 0    2 = 

12. An automobile’s suspension system determines the vehicle’s response to inputs from uneven road surfaces. Figure 3.56 shows a drawing of a suspension system that includes a coil spring, a shock absorber, and connecting links to the car frame and the wheel. Next to this artist’s rendering is a simple model that can be used to estimate the vertical oscillations of the system. From a static state, the system is given an initial velocity of ̇(0) = 15 m/s. Calculate the response () of the simplified system for the following parameter values:  = 40 kg,  = 25 kN/m, and  = 24 kN-s/m. There are no external forces acting on the wheel.

Figure 3.56: A cross-section of an automotive suspension system. Next to this sketch is a single degree-of-freedom simplified model.

Solution: The equation of motion is given by ̈ + ̇ +  = 0 where  = 40 kg,  = 2400 N-s/m, and  = 2500 N/m with initial conditions  (0) = 0 m and ̇ (0) = 15 m/s.

Problems for Section 3.7 — Harmonic Excitation and Damped Response 13. For the system in Figure 3.57, the forcing per unit mass is  () = 10 sin 15 ft/s2 . Solve for the transient response, the steady-state response, and the constants of integration for the following initial conditions. (a) (0) = 0 in, ̇(0) = 5 in/s (b) (0) = 5 in, ̇(0) = 0 in/s (c) (0) = 5 in, ̇(0) = 5 in/s. For the parameter values  = 40 lb,  = 085 lb-s/in,  = 125 lb/in, write down the complete response. Plot the transient and steady-state responses separately, then plot both of these with the complete solution on the same graph. Compare the results and discuss the significance of the initial conditions on the total response as time evolves.

Solution: The equation of motion is ̈ + () ̇ + (2)  = 10 sin 15 where we are given  and  The mass is found from  =  = 40(322) = 1 242 slugs. If we use slugs, we must convert all the length units to ft. The force per unit mass,  ()  is given in terms of s2 /ft. The damping and spring constants in proper units are  = 1020 lb-s/ft and  = 150 lb/ft. The initial conditions are converted to ft and ft/s. The specific EOM becomes ̈ + 821̇ + 2415 = 10 sin 15 where  () is in ft. The natural frequency is   = 1554 rad/s. First, we solve for the homogeneous solution.

127 We next solve for the particular solution due to harmonic forcing. Assume the particular solution of the form  () = 1 cos 15 + 2 sin 15 Differentiate this twice and substitute into the forced differential equation to find 1 = −007977 ft and 2 = 001069 ft. To this point, this solution is valid in general. The initial conditions are then applied to the sum of the homogenous and the particular solutions to find the constants 1 and 2 . The general solution is () = exp(−4105)(1 cos 1499 + 2 sin 1499) −007977 cos 15 + 001069 sin 15 The following equations must be satisfied in order to match the initial conditions: (0) = 1 − 007977 ̇(0) = − 1 + 2   + 15 (001069) The constants of integration, 1 and 2  are given by 1 = (0) + 007977 ̇(0) +   ((0) + 007977) − 15 (001069) 2 =  ̇(0) + (02642) (1554) ((0) + 007977) − 15 (001069) = 1499 For case (a), we have 1 = 007977 ft and 2 = 03447 ft.

129 For  = 001 0.1, and 0.5, max are max = 0260 00261 0.006 ft. For the designer, the interest lies with the frequency range where there is the greatest magnification. The concern with maximum displacement are two-fold. The first is that if a component vibrates with large amplitude, it may hit adjacent components. Secondly, if the vibration amplitude is too large, the system may start operating beyond the elastic and/or small displacement limit, for which the equations are no longer valid, fatiguing the materials.

For what range of frequency ratios will the magnification factor be greater than 86% of the peak response? Let  = 1 slug,  = 9 lb/in, and  = 015. Show the cases on a plot of the magnification factor vs. frequency ratio.

Figure 3.58: Harmonically driven oscillator.

Solution: The magnification factor is given by the expression: 1 =p  2 2 (1 −    )2 + (2  ) p p p For  = 015 and   =  = (9 × 12) 1 = 104 rad/s,  = 1 (1 − 2 )2 + (03)2 

From the exact expression, 1 p  1 (1 − 2 )2 + (03)2

we find   1382 which is fairly close to the approximate value of 1.4. This means that if the loading frequency is in the range:   14 ×   = 14 × 104 = 146 rad/s, there will be a magnification of the response.

19. For the system of Figure 3.58, what do the initial conditions have to be so that both integration constants  and  equal zero in Equation 3.37? Solution: The total solution consists of the homogeneous solution and the particular solution as given in Equation 3.37 or  () =  exp (−  ) cos (   − ) + 1 cos  + 2 sin 

If the integration constants,  and , are zeros, the particular solution alone must satisfy the initial conditions. That is,  (0) = 1 ̇ (0) = 2 

20. Derive  and  to verify Equations 3.38 and 3.39. Solution: Begin with Equation 3.37: () =  exp(−  ) cos(  − ) + 1 cos  + 2 sin  The initial conditions are (0) and ̇(0) Applying the initial conditions to Equation 3.37, we obtain two simultaneous equations: (0) =  cos  + 1 ̇(0) = −  cos  +   sin  + 2  From the first equation, we derive Equation 3.38: =

From the first equation, we solve for cos  : cos  =

From the second equation, we solve for sin  : sin  =

Solution: Equation 3.37 is given by () =  exp(−  ) cos(  − ) + 1 cos  + 2 sin  where  2 −  2 ( 2 −  2 )2 + (2  )2 2   2 =  ( 2 −  2 )2 + (2  )2 (0) − 1  = cos  ̇(0) − 2 +   ((0) − 1 )  = tan−1 . ((0) − 1 )  1 = 

Note that there are two sets of  and  that satisfy the last two equations. For example, if the argument of tan−1 is positive,  can be in the first or third quadrant. If the argument of tan−1 is negative,  can be in the second or fourth quadrant. Both sets of answers are correct. It is convenient to take  between −2 and 2 rad The values for each case are tabulated next.

The free and forced responses are similar but different from the transient and steady-state response. The free response is the part of the response due to the initial conditions only without the forcing term, and the forced response is the part of the response due to the forcing term only without the initial conditions. That is, the free and the forced responses satisfy the following equation of motion and initial conditions. ̈  + 2  ̇  +  2   = 0  (0) = 1 and ̇ (0) = 1

CHAPTER 3 SDOF VIBRATION: WITH DAMPING

It is not easy to separate out the free and forced responses from the transient and steady-state responses. It is better to solve the differential equations again. The solution to Equation (1) has the same form as the transient response and   () = exp(−005) ( cos 04975 +  sin 04975)  Applying initial conditions,   () = exp(−005) (cos 04975 + 211 sin 04975)  The forced response has the form of   () = exp(−005) ( cos 04975 +  sin 04975) −1310 cos  + 01747 sin  Applying the zero initial conditions, we find  = 131 and  = −0219.

Another way of writing the complex number is to use its length  and the angle  such that  +  =  cos  +  sin  Using the Euler formula, we can write  +  =  exp ()  where √   = 2 + 2 and  = tan−1   Care must be taken to choose the correct quadrant for  If the complex number is given by 1 ( + )  we can write 1 1 1 =√ exp (−)  =√  +  2 + 2 exp () 2 + 2 where

25. The base-excited system of Figure 3.59 is driven by a force with frequencies in the range 10 ≤    ≤ 20. For parameter values  = 1 kg,  = 9 N/cm, and  = 10 cm, select a value of  so that the average magnitude of the relative motion equals 1 cm over the frequency range.

Figure 3.59: A model of a base-excited system.

Solution: Let us start with the equation of motion, ̈ + ̇ +  = ̇ +  where  () is the motion of the mass seen from a fixed frame. The relative motion of the mass,  ()  is given by  () =  () −  ()  The equation of motion in terms of  () is given by ̈ + ̇ + ̇ = −̈ or ̈ + 2 ̇ +  2 ̇ = −̈ The amplitude ratio is then given by 2 1  =q =q   2 (2 − 2 ) + (2   )2 (1 − 2 )2 + (2)2 where  is the amplitude of the response of the mass relative to the base motion, and  is the amplitude of the base motion.

R2 From the figure, 1 ( )  is 0.1 when  is about 3.5. The corresponding damping constant is  = 2   = 21 N-s/m. Note that although  () =  () −  ()  the amplitude does not obey the same rule. That is,  6=  −  . This is because of the phase differences among the base motion, total response, and the relative response. For example, the amplitude of 3 cos  − 2 sin  is not 5. Therefore, although tempting, we cannot find  using   −  = = − 1   

where  must be in the first quadrant (because both numerator and denominators are positive), and  must be in either the first or second quadrant (because the numerator is always positive and the denominator can be either positive or negative). Then, the steady-state response is  () =  () exp () q 4 + (2   )2 = q exp ( (  + ( −  )))  2 2 2 2 ( −  ) + (2    ) If the base excitation is a sine function, the response is also a sine function with a phase lag of  −   The solution is plotted for  = 1  = 01  = 1 rad/s   = 05 rad/s.

Use Figure 3.38 for displacement transmissibility in answering the following questions. (Do not solve any equations.) Assume negligible damping. (a) Assume that the maximum amplitude of the base is  = 1 cm. A design for a rotating machine with this value of  and with natural frequency   = 3 rad/s is required so that  ≤ 2 cm across all frequencies   . Which  value should be chosen?

(b) Suppose that instead of the criteria in (a), we require  ≤ 1 cm and   10. The machine operates at   = 9 rad/s. What are the options for satisfying this criterion? (c) What is the equation for the maximum force transmitted to the base in terms of what is the force transmissibility (  ) when the  (    )  and  ? For  = 10, √ machine is running at   ' 0,   = 3 2 rad/s, and  = 9 rad/s?

Solution: (a) Based on the displacement transmissibility plot in Figure 3.38, a possible value of  that satisfies the criteria is  = 050 A value of  = 025 is too low, and  is greater than 2 around     = 1 (b) It is not possible to satisfy all the requirements for the whole frequency √ range. Therefore, one option is to control the vibration amplitudes for the range    ≤ 2 A feedback control mechanism can be added that reduces the vibration amplitudes in this range.

We want the properties of the seismometer such that  () is close to the ground motion  () and report it as the ground motion. The equation of motion is given by ̈ + 2 ̇ +  2  = −̈ where the ground motion is assumed harmonic,  () =  sin    Let  () =  exp ( )  and after substitution, we find  (  ) =  2

For the percent relative error to be within ±1% for  = 055 the frequency ratio must be   62276 There is a small range of  near 1 when the relative error falls below 1% However, as a practical matter, we would not design a seismometer hoping that  falls in this small range. For a natural frequency of  = 10 Hz, the seismometer can detect ground frequency greater than 62276 Hz.

Assume, using the notation of the chapter, that 0  = 005, operating frequency   = 100 rad/s,  = 010, and   = 10 rad/s. (a) Solve for the amplitude and phase of the response in the form of Equation 3.53. (b) Suppose amplitude  must be reduced by 15%.

 is a dimensionless quantity, and  is given as 0.1 mm. Therefore, the response amplitude is 000505 mm. (b) Looking at the solution in part (a), we see that the ratio  can be reduced by decreasing  or increasing  for example. It may improve the precision of the manufacturing process so that  and/or  are reduced. Note that as  is increased,   becomes smaller and the denominator in  varies nonlinearly. Such parameter variations need to be examined carefully.

32. A simple model of a seismometer is shown in Figure 3.60. The top view shows how a pen attached to the seismometer mass traces out a pattern on a paper grid that is on a roller. The side view provides more details of the model. The absolute motion of the ground is defined by () the relative motion of the mass recorded by the seismometer is (), and parameter values are  = 1 kg,  = 3 N-s/m, and  = 15 N/m.

If the ground frequency is close to the natural frequency of the system, the response amplitude grows. From harmonically forced vibration, we found that the maximum magnification occurs p 2 when     = 1 − 2 . As long as the system is damped, the response amplitude will not grow without a bound.

Model this force using: (a) a one-term Fourier series, (b) a three-term Fourier series, and (c) a five-term Fourier series. In each case solve for the response as a function of time. System properties are:  = 1 kg,  = 9 N/cm,  = 015,  = 1 s, and  = 1 cm.

209 Problems for Section 4.2 — Step Loading 8. A mass of  = 50 kg is suspended by a spring attached to a rope that is wound around a drum with radius  = 04 m and moment of inertia about the point of rotation  = 45 kg m2 , as shown in Figure 4.31. The spring of stiffness  = 3 kN/m reduces the shock of an applied load. The system is initially at rest when a constant torque  = 1 kN-m is applied to the system. (a) Derive an expression for the tension in the rope after a time  (b) What is the maximum tension in the rope?

Solution: This is a 2 DOF system, which is not covered yet in the text. The two coordinates are coupled ( () and  ()), and it is difficult (if not possible) to find  () without finding  () simultaneously. However, it is still possible to find the time history of the tension in the rope using the method studied in this chapter. The figure below shows the free-body diagrams.

CHAPTER 4 SDOF VIBRATION: GENERAL LOADING

19. Structures are sometimes subjected to very rapidly applied loads of extremely short duration. These types of loads are called blast or explosive loads. Consider how such a load time history may look. Figure 4.33(a) is a generic blast load. There is a rapid rise time along with an exponential-like decay, and by time 1 the load is effectively zero, where 1 ¿ 1 s. Such a time history is generally a very complicated function that may not be easily determined because of its sensitivity to many factors, such as the medium through which the load passes, be it the atmosphere or the Earth.

Figure 4.33: Measured (left) and approximate (right) blast time histories.

A common approach is to curve-fit the time history with an appropriate combination of functions. As a first approximation here, we replace the exact curve by the one shown in Figure 4.33(b). To draw such a straight-line approximation, estimate the area under the original curve (this is the impulse) and set it equal to the area under the triangle load, thus fixing the value of  . The maximum value 0 is the same for both curves. Although not strictly true for such high strain-rate loading, we neglect the effects of damping for the early time response. Solve for the structural response for all time; 0 ≤  ≤  and  ≥  . Show that: ∙ ¶ µ ¸  1 0 1 − − cos   + sin     0 ≤  ≤  () =  2     0 () = [sin   (1 − cos   )  3  − cos   (   − sin    )]    

Solution: The convolution integral can be applied to cases where the loading is discontinuous, but, as with any integral, the convolution integral must be split into continuous parts. Therefore, in this problem, since the idealized loading is continuous between 0 and   we have two convolution integrals, one for 0 ≤  ≤   and another for  ≥   The equation for the forcing is 0 (1 −  )

20. Resolve Problem 19 including damping. Discuss the importance of damping by comparing the two results. Solution: The addition of damping greatly complicates the expressions of the previous problems. The convolution integral can be applied to cases where the loading is discontinuous, but, as with any integral, the convolution integral must be split into continuous parts. Therefore, in this problem, since the idealized loading is continuous between 0 and   we have two convolution integrals, one for 0 ≤  ≤   and another for  ≥   The equation for the forcing is 0 (1 −  ) for 0 ≤  ≤   1 The impulse response function is given by () =  −  sin    Then, the response is  1 () =  

21. Solve for the response for all time of an underdamped oscillator that is driven by the forcing function shown in (a) Figure 4.34, and (b) Figure 4.35. Use the convolution integral.

Figure 4.34: Triangular loading function.

Figure 4.35: Sinusoidal loading function.

Solution: In this problem, forces are applied before  = 0 In this case, we can reset the time so that the force are applied beginning at  = 0 or redefine the convolution integral.

We have shown the full damped response. This can be significantly simplified if damping is eliminated. Note how the convolution integral is split into responses within continuous intervals of the loading. Just as we break apart any integral over discontinuities, we break apart the convolution integral over loading discontinuities. Note that we need to transform back to our original time by replacing  with  − 2 (b) (Fig.4.35) This loading is a sine function over the time period − ≤  ≤  We will solve this problem in two ways. The first method is the same method used in part (a). We will first shift the time, find the solution and shift the time back. The second method is to redefine the convolution integral so that it includes the effect of force that was applied before  = 0 Method 1 We shift the time so that the loading begins at zero time, and then we can use the convolution integral. Let 1 =  +  Then at 1 = 0  = − and at 1 =   = 0 The new loading is shown in the next figure.


239 The convolution response is given by ⎧R ⎨ 1  ( −  ) sin ( − )   0 ≤  ≤ 2 1 1 (1 ) = R 02  ⎩  ( −  ) sin ( − )    ≥ 2 1 1 0

After the integral, the time needs to be shifted back by replacing 1 with  + . We can shift the time even before the integrals are evaluated. We can rewrite the integral so that ⎧R ⎨ +  ( +  −  ) sin ( − )   − ≤  ≤  0  (1) () = ⎩ R 2  ( +  −  ) sin ( − )    ≥  0

Method 2 We can also redefine the convolution integral for this problem. Recall that the convolution integral is defined as Z   () =  ( −  )  ( )   0

where  ( −  ) is the response at time  due to the impulse  ( )  applied at  . In order to add the effect of the force applied starting from − s, the lower limit of the convolution integral is adjusted such that Z 

 () =

Then, the response is

(2)

Note that the solutions given in Equations (1) and (2) are identical once the dummy variable  in Equation (2) is replaced with another dummy variable, ̂ =  +  The impulse response function is given by () =

Note how the convolution integral is split into responses within continuous intervals of the loading. Just as we break apart any integral over discontinuities, we break apart the convolution integral over loading discontinuities. Note that we need to transform back from 1 to  to regain our original time scale.

Solution: The disk on the inclined plane is shown next.

Disk on an inclined plane connected to two springs. Since it is assumed that the disk rolls without slipping, there is no energy loss from friction.

CHAPTER 4 SDOF VIBRATION: GENERAL LOADING

24. Derive the equation of motion of Example 4.16 using Newton’s second law of motion. Solution: We choose to use  as the generalized coordinate, so it becomes convenient to approach the problem using the sum of moments instead of the sum of forces. Figure next shows the free-body diagram.

We can use one of the three versions of Newton’s second law for a rotational system. Note that we must define a clockwise moment to be positive here, since that is the direction of increasing . X  =    ©   X  =     +  ×  ©   X  =     +  ×  (Any moving point ). ©    is the angular momentum defined by where  Z   =  ×  

The first equation is easy to memorize but it does not eliminate the frictional force at , P and therefore, needs to be used in conjunction with the force balance equation along the incline (  =  along the incline) The second equation can be reduced to a more familiar equation when  is a fixed point on the body (so that  is constant P with time) and also has a zero velocity. Typically such point is re-labeled as  and we have ©  =  ̈ Let us use the second relation, X  =  ̈ +  ×  

Since there is no single answer, describe how to proceed and what considerations must be made during the analysis. Provide one solution. Solution: Begin by assuming a specific structure, with known  and   Solve for the forced response to  cos  where  () = 0 Compare the peaks of this response to  If the peaks exceed this value, consider what would happen if  is increased. If for the specific structure it is impossible to alter  or    then a control force becomes necessary. As a possible solution in general  is the obvious one:  () = − cos  While this is excessive, it does suggest an approach to  this problem. Other approaches are shown in Chapter 6.


246

CHAPTER 4 SDOF VIBRATION: GENERAL LOADING

26. How does randomness of excitation alter the analyst’s ability to evaluate structural response? Solution: If the loading has randomness, meaning that we are uncertain about its amplitude of frequency and oscillation, then the analyst has a more difficult time assessing structural response. Of particular concern is whether loading frequencies overlap structural natural frequencies, which result in response magnification. If the randomness is small, then it may be possible to use average loading. If the randomness is broader, then several possible loadings can be used to consider the various responses. The worst case of these is then taken in consideration in a design. Other approaches are shown in Chapter 5, where we will learn how to pick optimal, not extreme, values for parameters using their probability density.


247

27. What difficulties arise if a system parameter such as  or  is known only approximately? Solution: Problems can arise if uncertainties exist about system parameters. If the uncertainties are too large to allow the analyst to use the average values of  or  then it is necessary to consider the worst case scenario, that is, parameter values that result in the largest response amplitude or frequency. In Chapter 5 we will learn how to pick optimal values for parameters using their probability density functions.


248

CHAPTER 4 SDOF VIBRATION: GENERAL LOADING

Problems for Section 4.7 — Notions of Control 28. If the structure responds in a way that is unacceptable for a particular application, what options exist for the designer? Solution: Unacceptable response requires either a re-design of the structure or the addition of a control force. Sometimes both are necessary. If a re-design is not possible, then one requires the addition of a control force to counter the effects of environmental forces. In Chapter 6 the concepts of feedback control will be introduced.


249

29. If the analyst decides that a structure requires control in order to fulfill the needs of an application, describe the procedure by which a control force can be derived and then verified that it performs as expected. Solution: If a control force is required, then the benchmark against which a control force is compared is the uncontrolled response. Thus, the system response is evaluated without the addition of control. The difference between the uncontrolled response and the desired response is to be eliminated by the control force. As far as the system is concerned, the control force is an external force. In reality, the control force is generated as a function of system response. If the system response is large, the control force is large, and vice versa. Knowing the character of the environmental forces permits us to prescribe the control force. Of course, in many instances we cannot predict the specific nature of the external forces, only their general characteristics. In this case, feedback control is necessary, where the control force is governed by the real-time measurement of the response. Verification hinges on testing the system and control in a variety of expected loadings. There is significant discussion on control in the later chapter.

30. A simple system is represented by the governing equation ̈ +  =  () where  = 1 kg,  = 10 N/m, and  () = cos  N with zero initial conditions. Find the steady-state response  () Now suppose that the system is constrained regarding its maximum allowable amplitude, |max | ≤ 005 m. Determine the needed  () Solution: The system is undamped, and as a consequence the homogeneous solution does not die out with time. This is not realistic because in a real physical system there is always damping no matter how small it may be). Therefore, we assume that there is damping in the system so that the homogeneous solution decays with time, but small enough so that the steady-state response amplitude can be approximated using  = 0Then, the steady-state response is given by  () =

0 0 cos  = cos  − +  9

In order to reduce the amplitude to 0.05 m, the force magnitude must be between −005 × 9 N ≤ 0 ≤ 005 × 9 N. With the existing force magnitude of 1 N, we need the control force  () =  cos ( − )  where −145 N ≤  ≤ −055 N. Note that the control force is at the same frequency as the existing force. In addition, note that for above answer to be valid, the control force must be in phase with the existing force. For example, if the control force is 180◦ out of phase, the amplitude of  sin  + 0 cos  is q 2 2 +   | | =  instead of  +  


251 Problems for Section 4.8 — The Inverse Problem 31. Consider the simple system, ̈+ =  () where  () is known but  and  are unknown. Suppose the initial conditions are both equal to zero. What can we determine about the values of  and ? Solution: In this case where we don’t know the response (), we don’t have enough information to explicitly solve for  and . If we are able to measure the response, then we can calculate its frequency assuming that  () is harmonic. Also,if we can apply a constant  () via an experiment we can measure the static displacement, which provides us with a means of relating  and .

32. Consider the simple system, ̈ +  =  () where  () and steady-state solution  () are known and  and  are unknown. Suppose the initial conditions are both equal to zero. What can we determine about the values of  and ? Solution: Here we know the steady-state response. If the force is harmonic then we can measure the frequency of oscillation. Also, if we can apply a constant force via an experiment we can measure the static displacement, which provides us with a means of relating  and .

Solution: Here the unknown is the input force. If the steady-state solution is harmonic, then the input is also harmonic. From the steady-state solution we can measure the natural frequency of oscillation.

Eventually, the system, will have amplitudes that are too large, rendering our linear governing differential equation invalid, and/or resulting in a system failure. Therefore, a velocity-dependent force can be stable or unstable, depending whether  is greater or less than 0  Note that if  = 0  the system is undamped.

35. Consider a damped oscillator where the force is a function of displacement, ̈ + ̇ +  = 0  Discuss the stability of this system in terms of the parameters    0 . Solution: We can rewrite the equation of motion as ̈ + ̇ + ( − 0 )  = 0 Now, we have a possibility that the coefficient of  can be negative. The characteristic values are p − ± 2 − 4 ( − 0 )

If  − 0  0 the real part of the characteristic values are negative, and the response decays exponentially (as seen in the underdamped, overdamped, and critically damped cases) unless there is no damping, in which case, the response does not decay but persists over time with the same amplitude of vibration. The response is uniformly stable. If  − 0 = 0 a solution of the type, ³  ´  () = 1 + 2 exp −    is possible. At most,  () has a constant solution, and the response is uniformly stable. If  − 0  0 one of the characteristic value is positive and the other negative. The response grows exponentially, and the response is unstable.

The idea is to find the time when the maximum occurs for a set of  and   from Equation (1) and substitute this time into Equation (1) to find the maximum value. This is not easy to do because you have to choose the time when the global maximum occurs. The problem is considerably more difficult because it is asking for the values of  and  for which |()|   for all time instead of for the time after the transient effects died out. Instead of finding the exact maximum, what we can do is to find the upper limit for  ()  We know that ¯ µ ¶ ¯ ¯ ¯ ¯−  exp (−  ) sin   ¯ ≤  ¯ ¯   |sin | ≤ 1 ¯ µ ¶ ¯ ¯ ¯ ¯−  exp (−  ) sin    + sin ¯ ≤  + 1 ¯ ¯  

Figure 5.23: A mass suspended by springs.

Solution: Static Equilibrium via Principle of Virtual Work There are three coordinates used, and there is one kinematic relationship. Therefore, the system has two independent coordinates. Due to negligible mass of the moving pulley, the system model can be written in terms of a second order differential equation in terms of one coordinate. The displacement of the mass is kinematically related to the other two coordinates by

CHAPTER 5 ANALYTICAL DYNAMICS

In order to find the virtual work, we may use either free-body diagrams. Let us use the last freebody diagram. The forces  and  are the reaction forces from the pin that are used to hold the pulley. These forces do not do work because the displacement at the pin is zero. The virtual work done is  = 1 ( − 1 )  (1 − ) − 2 1 1 + () 2  where the term, 1 − is the displacement of the moving pulley where the spring force, 1 ( − 1 )  is applied. A care is taken so that displacement is in the same direction of the force. Similarly, we note that the downward force, 2 1 , is applied to the center of the pulley which has a downward displacement of −1 hence the negative sign in the virtual work expression. We eliminate 2 by replacing it with 1 +  so that  = (1 ( − 1 ) − 2 1 + ) 1 + (− ( − 1 )  + )  We find 1 ( − 1 ) − 2 1 +  = 0 −1 ( − 1 )  +  = 0 Solving them simultaneously, we find 2 1 and  = 1 = 2 

Assume that the pulleys are massless and the springs are linear. (a) Find the static equilibrium position of the system using the principle of virtual work, and (b) derive the equation of motion using d’Alembert’s principle.

Figure 5.24: A mass suspended by springs.

Solution: Newton’s Law The stretch in the springs are 1 =  +  and 2 =  −  If we assume that the pulleys are massless, the tension in the cable is constant such that  = 1 ( + ) = 2 ( − ) 

Even if we do not realize this, we can eventually find that the tension is constant by taking a moment of the pulley as shown next. The free-body diagram for the pulley and the mass is shown next.

Summing the moment about the center of the pulley in the positive  direction, we find that 2 ( − )  − 1 ( + )  =  ̈

where the right hand side is zero because the pulley has a negligible mass. Therefore, 1 ( + ) = 2 ( − ) for both static and dynamic cases. The sum of the forces in the positive  direction, we have  − 1 ( + ) − 2 ( − ) = 0

Note that  and  are not kinematically related, and therefore, no further simplification is possible. We set the coefficients of virtual displacements to zero or  − 1 ( + ) − 2 ( − ) = 0 2 ( − )  − 1 ( + )  = 0

21. For the simple pendulum of Figure 5.33, derive the governing equation of motion assuming (a) that  is a point mass, and (b) that the mass is a sphere with small but finite mass moment of inertia. Given  = 10 cm and  = 5 kg, how significant is the effect of the mass moment of inertia if  = 05 cm? Derive the governing equation of motion using (i) Newton’s second law, (ii) Lagrange’s equation, and (iii) Hamilton’s principle.

Figure 5.33: Simple pendulum.

Solution: (a,i) Newton’s second law of motion - Point Mass - To use Newton’s second law of motion requires a free-body diagram of the mass. The two forces in the FBD are the weight acting down and the string tension acting through  Using Newton’s second law in moment form about point  yields:

− sin  =  ̈ or 2 ̈ +  sin  = 0 since  = 25 2 + 2 ≈ 2  Therefore, we see for inclusion of the dimension of the mass, we need to keep the term 25 2 in the equation of motion. See the next part for a comparison. (a,ii) Lagrange’s equation: Point Mass - The use of Lagrange’s equation requires the formulation of the kinetic and potential (gravitational and strain) energies. We need to define a datum from where the potential energy is set to zero. We choose the datum here to be at the low point of the pendulum swing, that is, the static equilibrium. Therefore, the gravitational potential and the kinetic energies are:

 = (1 − cos ) 1  = (̇)2  2 (The expression for  assumes that the mass has no dimension and therefore does not rotate about its own center of mass. Had we chosen the point  as our datum,  = − cos ) Then,

The last equation is one of the equation of motion although it does not resemble Equation (1). This equation can be solved with Equation (2) to find the response. It is possible to make this equation look like Equation (1) by solving for 2 using Equation (2) and replace it in Equation (3). We find ³ ´ 2 −2 =  ̈ + ̈ cos  − ̇ sin  

Solution: (a) Flexibility influence coefficients The flexibility matrix for this system has four elements. Since the flexibility influence coefficient matrix is symmetric, we need only derive three coefficients. First, we apply a unit force to mass 1  The resulting free-body diagram is shown below. Note that the forces in the vertical direction are the gravity and the normal force from the ground. They cancel each other, and they are excluded from the FBD.

Since 2 is unstretched, 1 and 2 displace as a rigid body, 1 = 1 1 1 = 1 1 ; 1 1 =  1 The second mass translates to the right by the same distance, and therefore we find 11 = 21 = 11  Next, we apply a unit force to mass 2  The resulting free-body diagram is shown below.

This is a static problem, and the forces on each mass must sum zero. Then, we have 1 1 = 2 (2 − 1 ) 2 (2 − 1 ) = 2 = 1 We find 12 = 1 = 11 and 22 = 2 = 11 + 12  The flexibility influence coefficient matrix is ⎡ [] =

(b) Stiffness influence coefficients Now, we apply a unit displacement to each degree-of-freedom and observe the resulting force. We draw a free-body diagram results from positive 1 and 2 

First, we apply a unit displacement to the 1 coordinate and let 2 = 0. 1 and 2 are the forces necessary to maintain static equilibria. The result is 1 = (1 + 2 ) ≡ 11 and 2 = −2 ≡ 21 


359 Applying a unit displacement to 2 and setting 1 = 0 gives us 1 = −2 ≡ 12  and 2 = 2 ≡ 22  Thus, the matrix of stiffness influence coefficients is: ⎡ ⎤ 1 + 2 −2 ⎦ [] = ⎣ −2 2

(c) Find the inverse of the flexibility matrix and show that this equals the stiffness matrix To see that [ ] and [] are inverses, we take the matrix product [ ][] : ⎤ ⎡ ⎡ ⎤ (1 +2 ) 2 −2 +2 − 1 1 0 1 ⎦=⎣ ⎦ [ ][] = ⎣ 1 −2 +2 −2 +2 2 + 2 0 1 1 1

Since the matrix product [][] is the identity matrix, [] is the inverse of [] or, []−1 = [] (d) Write the matrix equation of motion. We already have the [] matrix from part (b) of this problem.

First Column of the Flexibility Influence Matrix To find the first column of the flexibility matrix, we consider the figure below where a unit force is applied to mass 1 shown in the next figure.

We can then write the static force equations for mass 1. Begin by applying a unit force in the horizontal direction resulting in an offset from the vertical of 1  Define the distance that the mass is displaced in the horizontal direction to be 11 = 1 sin 1  Note that since the masses below are also displaced the same amount as mass 1  we have 21 = 31 = 11  Write the equations of static equilibrium for 1 : 1 sin 1 = 1 1 cos 1 = (1 + 2 + 3 )  From this we have tan 1 = 1 [(1 + 2 + 3 ) ]  Therefore, we now have the first column of the flexibility matrix, 11 = 21 = 31 = 1 sin 1 1 = q  2 2 1 +  (1 + 2 + 3 ) We also make use of the known symmetry properties: 12 = 21 and 13 = 31 If  is small, then sin  ' tan  and the expression for 11 simplifies to 11 ' 1  (1 + 2 + 3 )  Second Column of the Flexibility Influence Matrix

Next, apply a unit force in the horizontal direction to mass 2 resulting in an offset from the vertical of 1 for the mass 1 and 2 for mass 2 as shown in the next figure.

The distance that the  mass is displaced in the horizontal direction is 2  or 12 = 1 sin 1 22 = 32 = 1 sin 1 + 2 sin 2  Newton’s second law for mass 1 and mass 2 yields: For mass 1: X −→  = 2 sin 2 − 1 sin 1 = 0 X ↑  = 1 cos 1 − 2 cos 2 − 1  = 0

Eliminating 1 and 2 from above equations, we find 1 (1 + 2 + 3 )  1  tan 2 = (2 + 3 )  tan 1 =

The second equation is obtained by dividing Equation (5) by Equation (6). The first equation is obtained by dividing Equation (3) by Equation (4) after 2 is replaced by the expressions given in Equations (5) and (6). Then, we find 1 sin 1 = q 1 + (1 + 2 + 3 )2 2 1 sin 2 = q  1 + (2 + 3 )2 2


363 Then, we rewrite Equations (1) and (2) as 1 12 = 1 sin 1 = q 1 + (1 + 2 + 3 )2 2

Summing the forces in the  and  directions for three masses, we obtain: For mass 1: 1 sin 1 = 2 sin 2 1 cos 1 = 2 cos 2 + 1  For mass 2: 2 sin 2 = 3 sin3 2 cos 2 = 3 cos 3 + 2  For mass 3: 3 sin 3 = 1 3 cos 3 = 3  Eliminating the tensions (1  2  and 3 ) from six equations above, we obtain three equations given by 1 (1 + 2 + 3 )  1 tan 2 = (2 + 3 )  1  tan 3 = 3  tan 1 =

Then, 33 = 1 sin 1 + 2 sin 2 + 3 sin 3 1 2 3 = q +q +p 1 + 23 2 1 + (1 + 2 + 3 )2  2 1 + (2 + 3 )2  2

Problems for Section 6.3 — Equations of Motion 3. For the double pendulum of Figure 6.66, derive the equations of motion using (a) Newton’s second law, and (b) Lagrange’s equation.

Figure 6.66: Double pendulum.

Solution: We assume the pendula to be inextensible strings. (a) By Newton’s second law of motion, we need a free-body diagram for each mass.

Then since the motion of each mass is planar, we will have two EOM for each mass, even though there are only 2 degrees-of-freedom, 1 and 2  The additional equations are for the tensions in the strings. Therefore, the tensions can be removed from the equations resulting in the two EOM. Let 1 and 2 be the generalized coordinates. Consider mass 1. The  and  components of velocities are: ̇ = 1 ̇1 cos 1 ̇ = 1 ̇1 sin 1 


367 Differentiate these expressions with respect to time  and recalling the chain rule of differentiation, we find the respective accelerations in the  and  directions. Applying Newton’s second law to each mass, we obtain: For mass 1: ³ ´ X 2  = 1  =⇒ −1 sin 1 + 2 sin 2 = 1 1 ̈1 cos 1 − ̇1 sin 1 (1) ³ ´ X 2  = 1  =⇒ 1 cos 1 − 2 cos 2 = 1  + 1 1 ̈1 sin 1 + ̇1 cos 1 (2) Similarly for mass 2: X

We can eliminate 2 from Equations (3) and (4) by adding Equation (3) × cos 2 and Equation (2) × sin 2 so that (3) × cos 2 + (2) × sin 2 = 0 h i 2 2 2 ̈2 + 2 1 ̈1 cos (2 − 1 ) + ̇1 sin (2 − 1 ) + 2  sin 2 = 0

(EOM 1)

This is one of the equations of motion. The second equation of motion is obtained by eliminating 1 and 2 from Equations (1) and (2). Equations (3) and (4) are substituted into Equations (1) and (2) to eliminate 2 first. Then, Equations (3) and (4) become ³ ´ ³ ´ 2 2 −1 sin 1 = (1 + 2 ) 1 ̈1 cos 1 − ̇1 sin 1 + 2 2 ̈2 cos 2 − ̇2 sin 2 ³ ´ 2 1 cos 1 = (1 + 2 )  + (1 + 2 ) 1 ̈1 sin 1 + ̇1 cos 1 ³ ´ 2 +2 2 ̈2 sin 2 + ̇2 cos 2  Multiplying the first by cos 1 , multiplying the second by sin 1  and adding the two, we obtain (1 + 2 ) 1 ̈1 + 2 2 (cos 1 cos 2 + sin 1 sin 2 ) ̈2 2

+2 2 (cos 2 sin 1 − cos 1 sin 2 ) ̇2 + (1 + 2 )  sin 1 = 0 which simplifies to h i 2 (1 + 2 ) 1 ̈1 + 2 2 ̈2 cos (2 − 1 ) − ̇2 sin (2 − 1 ) + (1 + 2 )  sin 1 = 0

This is the second equation of motion.

Derive the equations of motion for this two degree-of-freedom system using (a) Newton’s second law, and (b) Lagrange’s equation. Let  () be the prescribed ground motion, and  () be the absolute position of the mass .

Solution: (a) Newton’s Second Law to derive the EOM by taking two free-body diagrams, one of the block and the other of the rod. There are two degrees-of-freedom. We use  () and  ()  where  () is the horizontal coordinate of the block measured from inertial frame.

Assume that the ground has displacement  and velocity ̇ Then, the damper and the spring exert a force of − [ ( − ) +  (̇ − ̇)] on the block. From Newton’s second law, summing the forces on the block in the horizontal direction gives − [ ( − ) +  (̇ − ̇)] +  = ̈

Similarly, summing the forces in the horizontal direction for the rod gives − =   where  is the acceleration of the rod’s center of mass in the horizontal direction obtained from 2 2 r = {( +  sin ) i +  cos j} 2 2 ´ ³ ´ ³ 2 2 = ̈ + ̈ cos  − ̇ sin  ̂ + −̈ sin  − ̇ cos  j {z } {z } | |

This is one of the two equation of motion. Note that the spring and the damping force do not explicitly dependent on the position or velocity of the rod. Now, we examine the motion of the rod. To do so, we will look at the sum of the moments about the rod’s center of mass using X +©  =  ̈

To apply this equation requires knowledge of the reaction forces  and   Note that taking moments at any other point will result in an extra term in the equation.

(b) Use Lagrange’s Equation - by first deriving the kinetic and potential energies. We implicitly assume that the rod is rigid, and that the block can be treated as a point mass. Because of the damping between the block and the environment, we have nonconservative work. The kinematic relationships of these two bodies are needed in order to derive the energies. The position of the rod from the  axis is given by: r = ( +  sin )i +  cos j v = (̇ + ̇ cos )i − ̇ sin j

R and 12  (̇) = ̇|2 − ̇|1 = 0 since the variation equals zero at the end times. After substituting all these terms and collecting terms according to their variations, and noting that the variations are arbitrary, means that the collection of terms multiplying them must equal zero: Z 2  {[ ]  + [ ] }  = 0; 1

Each group of terms in the square brackets must equal zero independently. This leads to the matrix EOM. Finally, we solve the matrix EOM: ⎤⎧ ⎫ ⎡ ⎡ ⎨ ̈ ⎬ 1 + 2   ⎦ ⎣ +⎣ ⎩ ̈ ⎭ − +   2 +  

11. Consider the problem of the “sliding pendulum” drawn in Figure 6.70, where a mass slides along a frictionless rod which is assumed to be uniform and thin. Use (a) Newton’s second law, and (b) Lagrange’s equation to derive the equations of motion. Can the governing equations be linearized? Under what conditions? What happens when  = ?

Figure 6.70: Sliding pendulum.

Solution: This is a 2-DOF system. We will use  and  where  is the distance between the mass  and the pivot point. (a) Newton’s second law - Let us draw a free-body diagram as shown below. We assume that the rod is frictionless.

Summing the forces in the radial and the transverse directions for the mass , we obtain X  =  cos  =  X  =  −  sin  =  


397 where  is the normal force exerted by the rod. From kinematics, we know the accelerations in the radial and transverse directions are given by 2

 = ̈ − ̇  = ̈ + 2̇̇ Then,

´ ³ 2  cos  =  ̈ − ̇ ³ ´  −  sin  =  ̈ + 2̇̇ 

For the rod, sum the moment about the pivot point  to obtain X   = −  −  sin  =  ̈ 2 1 where  = 2 . The constraint force,   is eliminated and we have two equations of motion 3 given by 2

These are nonlinear equations where the terms, ̇  2 ̈ 2̇̇ and  sin  are nonlinear. It should be noted that the equations are valid while the mass is sliding along the rod. They are not valid during collision. After the collision, a new set of initial conditions must be given.

̈ − ̇ −  cos  = 0 which is identical to the EOM obtained via Newton’s law. 2 The EOM can be linearized if physical arguments can be made that ̇̇ and ̇ can be ignored. In general this cannot be done unless ̇ is very small.

These equations can be linearized if physical arguments can be made that ̇̇ and ̇ can be ignored. In general this cannot be done unless ̇ is very small. Some possible linearization justifications are 2 that the rod oscillates very slowly, and therefore ̇ is a small quantity. Then ̇ is much smaller. Similarly, if mass  moves very slowly, then the product ̇̇ is an ignorable quantity. In addition we need to assume that  is small. If so, this could lend credence to the possibilities of small velocities. The linearized EOM are then: µ ¶ µ ¶ 1 2  2  + 0 ̈ +  + 0  = 0 3 2 ̈ −  = 0 where 0 is the starting location for the mass. The second EOM describes a free falling mass. It is independent of  and can be integrated twice to yield:  = 2 2 + 1  + 2  This can be substituted into the first EOM. Physically, the solution for () grows without bounds, which is a problem. Further, when () is substituted into the equation for () we obtain an EOM with time-dependent coefficients. We have mentioned such equations in earlier chapters (when discussing stability) that such equations may have responses that grow without bounds, depending on the system parameter values.

22. A cargo ship containing many boxes is at sea and experiences rough motion. Consider two masses in the cargo hold that are in close proximity when mass 1 is subjected to a force  =  cos( + ) in line with the springs, as shown in Figure 6.72. The two masses are connected to each other via spring 2  and mass 1 is connected to the ship’s hull via a spring and a damper. Derive the equation for the relative motion of the two masses.

Figure 6.72: A two degree-of-freedom model of two masses on a cargo ship.

Solution: Although the system describes a system in a cargo ship experiencing rough motion, the problem is not posed as a base-excited problem, but instead a harmonically forced problem. We draw free-body diagrams for each mass and sum the forces in the horizontal direction. Note that 1 () and 2 () are total displacements.

The corresponding EOMs are 1 ̈1 + 1 ̇1 + (1 + 2 ) 1 − 2 2 =  2 ̈2 − 2 1 + 2 2 = 0 We are interested in the distance between the two masses. Let us define  = 2 − 1  The actual clearance between the masses is  +  where  is the undeformed length of the spring 2  Replace 2 with  + 1 in the EOMs. Then, 1 ̈1 + 1 ̇1 + 1 1 − 2  =  2 ̈1 + 2 ̈ + 2  = 0


419 The relative motion of the two masses is given by (). The above equations are the equations of motion in terms of 1 () and  ()  which must be solved simultaneously. Another approach would be to solve for the system response 1  2 and then evaluate  = 2 − 1  It is possible to find a single differential equation in terms of  only. For a linear system, take the Laplace transforms of the two differential equations, solve for  () algebraically and convert back to the differential equation using inverse Laplace transform.

23. The vibration characteristics of an airplane are very complex due to its intricate system of structures and substructures. Suppose we consider the much simplified model of Figure 6.73, which is a three degree-of-freedom representation of the fuselage and wings. Derive the equations of motion using both Newton’s second law and Lagrange’s equation. Initially assume arbitrary 1 and 2 . Then consider two simplifications: (a) symmetrical vibration of the wing-body combination, that is, 1 = 2 = , 1 = 2 = , and 1 = 2 = , and (b) small . Solve for the free vibration response after simplifying and linearizing the equations of motion. Discuss your assumptions.

Figure 6.73: A much simplified airplane model.

Solution: Assume that the mass of each wing is represented by a point mass, 1  that is a distance  away from the body of the airplane. For the general vibration case, the system has three DOFs: 1 2 and  We have the following position vectors if the origin is placed at  = 0 directly beneath mass  with unit vectors i and j defined as positive to the right and up, respectively. The position vectors are:

r = j r1 = − cos 1 i + ( +  sin 1 )j r2 =  cos 2 i + ( +  sin 2 )j

The velocity vectors are:

v = ̇j v1 = ̇1 sin 1 i + (̇ + ̇1 cos 1 )j v2 = −̇2 sin 2 i + (̇ + ̇2 cos 2 )j


421 For Lagrange’s equation we need the following energies: µ³ ´2 ³ ´2 ¶ 1 1 2  =  ̇ + 1 ̇1 sin 1 + ̇ + ̇1 cos 1 2 2 µ³ ´2 ³ ´2 ¶ 1 ̇2 sin 2 + ̇ + ̇2 cos 2 + 2 2 ³ ´2 1 ³ ´2 1 1 2 =  ̇ + 1 ̇1 + 2 ̇2 2 2 2 ´ ³ 1 2 + (1 + 2 )̇ + ̇ 1 ̇1 cos 1 + 2 ̇2 cos 2  2

The potential energy comes from gravity and stiffness, and it is given by

1 1  = 1 21 + 2 22 −  − 1 ( + 1 sin 1 ) − 2 ( + 1 sin 2 ) 2 2 If we assume that 1 and 2 are in static equilibrium positions when 12 = 0 (or their positions measured from the static equilibrium positions), we can omit the gravitational potential. Then, the potential energy due to stiffness is given by 1 1  = 1 21 + 2 22  2 2 Therefore, the Lagrangian is  =  − ³ ´2 1 ³ ´2 1 1 1 =  ̇ 2 + 1 ̇1 + 2 ̇2 + (1 + 2 )̇ 2 2 2 2 2 ´ 1 ³ 1 +̇ 1 ̇1 cos 1 + 2 ̇2 cos 2 − 1 21 − 2 22  2 2

Therefore, the EOMs are given by 1 2 ̈1 + 1 (̈ cos 1 − ̇ ̇1 sin 1 ) + ̇1 ̇1 sin 1 + 1 1 = 0 2 2 ̈2 + 2 (̈ cos 2 − ̇ ̇2 sin 2 ) + ̇2 ̇2 sin 2 + 2 2 = 0 ´ ³ 2 2 ( + 1 + 2 )̈ +  1 ̈1 cos 1 − 1 ̇1 sin 1 + 2 ̈2 cos 2 − 2 ̇2 sin 2 = 0

Note that 1 () = 2 () if the plane is symmetric (1 = 2 and 1 = 2 ) In this case, the number of degrees-of-freedom is two, and only one of the first two equations need to be solved simultaneously with the third. If these equations are to be linearized, we assume small angles so that cos 1 ' 1 and sin 1 ' 1  In addition, we need to assume that nonlinear terms such as the product ̇ ̇1 sin 1 ≈ ̇ ̇1 1 can be ignored. Then, the linearized EOMs are

24. What will change in our formulation and solution of Problem 23 if the symmetry assumption in the previous problem is removed? Discuss fully. Solution: If symmetry is applied, we are implicitly assuming that the responses 1 and 2 are identical. This can only occur if the loading is completely symmetrical as well. Of course, this would be a special case and not a general assumption. Such symmetry reduces the degree of the structure from 3 to 2. The three EOMs for the non-symmetric case are obtained in the previous problem.

The virtual work is done through  gravity, and spring forces.

26. For the two degree-of-freedom system shown in Figure 6.75 derive the equations of motion. Assume that there is no slip between the cords that connect the masses to the pulley. The moment of inertia of the pulley about its point of rotation is  How would the formulation be different if slippage does occur?

Figure 6.75: A system of two masses coupled through a pulley.

Solution: This is a one-DOF system if the cord does not slip. If the cord is allowed to slip, the motion of the wheel and the motion of the block are not related by a simple kinematic relationship, and it becomes a two-DOF system. We will derive the equations of motion for both cases. Let us draw the free-body diagrams for 1  2  and the wheels as shown below.

Summing the forces in the  direction for 1  we obtain X →  = − + 1 = 1 ̈

No Slip If there is no slip, we have two kinematic relationships,  = 1   = 2 

(4) (5)

Let us use  as our independent variable. This is a one-DOF system because we have three coordinates (, , and ) and two constraint equations (Equations (4) and (5)). We should always be in the habit of counting the number of unknowns and the number of available equations. We have 5 unknowns,    1  and 2  and 5 equations from Newton’s second law (Equations (1)-(3)) and two kinematic equations. The goal is to reduce them to a single equation in terms of  ()  Solving for 1 and 2 using Equations (1) and (3), and substituting them into Equation (2), we obtain −2 ̈2 − (1 ̈ + ) 1 =  ̈ We replace  and  ³using the kinematic relations (Equations (4) and (5)) and obtain the equation ´ 2 2 of motion, 2 ̈2 − 1 ̈ +  1 =  ̈ Collecting terms, we have

With Slip

¡ ¢  + 2 22 + 1 12 ̈ + 12  = 0

If the slip is allowed, and if it is assumed that the friction between the cord and the pulley is negligible, the motion of the masses are independent of the motion of the pulley. The tension, which is constant along the cable, is not transferred to the pulley. In addition, we may assume that one cable connects both masses and the displacements  and  are, therefore, equal. (When no slip occurs, we have to assume that the cords that connect the pulley and the masses are cut) The system now has two degrees-of-freedom,  () and  ()  Equations (1)-(3) are given by − +  = 1 ̈  (2 − 1 ) =  ̈ − + 2  = 2 ̈ which give two EOMs, (1 + 2 ) ̈ +  = 2   ̈ + (2 − 1 ) (2 ̈ − 2 ) = 0

Solution: We can sketch the system by noting several characteristics of the system property matrices. The first is that the mass matrix is diagonal, generally implying that this is rectilinear motion rather than rotational motion. The damping and stiffness matrices are each fully coupled, but the second diagonal term is not the same multiple of the first diagonal term. A little thought will show that we have two masses, with mass 1 coupled to a fixed end by spring 1 and damper 1 on one side and coupled to mass 2 on the other side by spring 2 and damper 2  Mass 2 is attached to a fixed end by a spring 3 .

35. Show that the orthogonality relations hold when there is coupling in both mass as well as in stiffness matrices as long as they are symmetric. This requires a derivation of the characteristic matrix and equation, the eigenvalues and the eigenvectors. Solution: Start with the eigenvalue problem given by [] {} = 2 [] {}  There are  eigenvalues ( 2 ) and  corresponding eigenvectors ({}) for  DOF system. Let us confine ourselves to 2 DOF system for now.

{}1 [] {}2 = 22 {}1 [] {}2  Transpose of the second equation is {}2 [] {}1 = 22 {}2 [] {}1 

CHAPTER 6 MULTI DOF VIBRATION

For a design application, it is necessary that |2 − 1 | ≥  , where  is some critical separation distance between the masses. Describe how you would check that this condition is met, and what options exist for a re—design of the structure. For the above free vibration problem, define a new variable  = 2 − 1 and it is straightforward to track this difference for a particular set of initial conditions. All we have to do is to program () and check at each time instant that the responses are calculated whether  ≤   If there are instances where the critical distance is exceeded, then it would be necessary to re-design the stiffness between the two masses. (c) Lagrange’s Equation - To use Lagrange’s equation, we need the kinetic and potential (strain) energies of the system: 1 1 1 ̇21 + 2 ̇22 2 2 1 1 1 1  = 1 21 + 2 (2 − 1 )2 + 3 22 + 4 22  2 2 2 2 ³ ´  Then, Lagrange’s equation for each generalized coordinate is  ̇ +  =0:   =

Interchanging the variation and the integral and then taking the variation of each term yields: 1 ̇1  ̇1 + 2 ̇2  ̇2 − 1 1 1 − 2 (2 − 1 ) (2 − 1 ) − (3 + 4 ) 2 2  We need to replace the variations of the derivative terms as follows:  ( ̇  ) − 1 ̈1 1  1 1 1 1 ̇1  ̇1  =  (1 ̇1 1 ) − 1 ̈1 1 ;  2 ̇2  ̇2 = ( ̇  ) − 2 ̈2 2  2 2 2 2 ̇2  ̇2  =  (2 ̇2 2 ) − 2 ̈2 2  1 ̇1  ̇1 =

37. In Problem 36, the system is forced with 1 () = 1 cos Ω1  and 2 () = 2 sin Ω2  acting on mass 1 and 2  respectively. Using modal analysis, solve for the forced response assuming initial conditions 1 (0) = 0 ̇1 (0) = 1  2 (0) = 2 and ̇2 (0) = 0.

Solution: Since arbitrary loading frequencies are given, there are two cases that should be considered in a design. The first is that one or both of the frequencies  1 and  2 are equal to the natural frequencies of vibration. The second case is that neither equals the natural frequencies. We will proceed only with the second case. Proceeding under this assumption, we can write the EOM as: ⎫ ⎡ ⎤⎧ ⎫ ⎡ ⎤⎧ ⎫ ⎧ ⎬ ⎬ ⎨ ⎨ ⎨ 1 cos  1  ⎬ 1 1 −2  0 1 + 2 ⎣ 1 ⎦ ⎦ +⎣ = 0  ⎩ ⎭ −  +  +  ⎩  ⎭ ⎩  sin   ⎭ 2

Now, we can proceed with an eigenvalue analysis of the system to find the natural frequencies and the mode shapes. Recall from Problem 36 that 1 = 2 = 1 kg and all stiffness are 1 N/m Eigenvalue Problem We first solve the homogeneous problem with forces set to zeros. Assume a harmonic solution, { ()} = {} exp ()  Upon substituting the assumed solution, we obtain the eigenvalue problem given by ⎧ ⎫ ⎛⎡ ⎤ ⎡ ⎤⎞ ⎧ ⎫ ⎨0⎬ ⎨ ⎬ 1 + 2 −2 0  1 ⎝⎣ ⎦ − 2 ⎣ 1 ⎦⎠ = ⎩0⎭ ⎩ ⎭ 0 2 −2 2 + 3 + 4 2 ⎫ ⎧ ⎫ ⎧ ⎤⎞ ⎛⎡ 2 ⎬ ⎨0⎬ ⎨ −1 1 2− ⎦⎠ ⎝⎣ = ⎩0⎭ ⎩ ⎭ −1 3 −  2 2

38. If Problem 36 is modified to include damping between the two masses as shown in Figure 6.77, solve for the case with no forcing using (a) modal analysis, and (b) the direct method.

The question is now whether the damping is proportional or not. What we require for proportional damping is that the following relation exists between the property matrices: [] =  [] +  []; ⎡ ⎤ ⎡ ⎤ ⎡ ⎤ −2  −  0  + 2 ⎣ ⎦ =  ⎣ 1 ⎦ +  ⎣ 1 ⎦ 0 2 −  −2 2 + 3 + 4

In order for this to be true, we have to equate the respective elements in the matrix equation:  = 1  + (1 + 2 )  − = −2   = 2  + (2 + 3 + 4 )  

Due to the symmetry in the matrices, there are in reality 3 and not 4 equations. The second equation defines  = 2  Then, substituting  into the first and third equations, we can solve each for   Since these two expressions must be equal to each other, we equate them to find:  =

1 1 + 2 1 2 + 3 + 4 − = −  1 1 2 2 2 2

(1)

This is the general relation that must be satisfied by the system parameters in order that the damping be proportional. We can immediately see the special case: if 1 = 2 then 1 = 3 + 4  In Problem 36, all the mass and stiffness are set to 1 with appropriate units. This violates Equation (1), and therefore, the damping of the current system with the parameters of Problem 36 is not proportional. Only the direct method can be used. However, we will proceed with both methods without substituting the numerical values.

(a) Modal Analysis - First, we rewrite the EOM as [] {̈} + ( [] +  []) {̇} + [] {} = 0 where  and  are given in Equation (1). The first step is to find the natural frequencies and the mode shapes of the undamped problem. The eigenvalue problem to be solved is ¢ ¡ 2 − [] + [] {} = {0} 

The eigenvectors, {}  must be normalized with respect to []  MATLAB command, [P, D] = eig(k,m) will produce the modal matrix, P, and the diagonal matrix of eigenvalues,  The columns of the modal matrix are the normalized eigenvectors. The second step is to transform the current system using {} = [ ] {}  We then multiply the EOM by [ ] from the left to find the transformed EOMs: ⎛ ⎡ ⎤⎞ ⎤ ⎡  21 0  21 0 ⎦⎠ {̇} + ⎣ ⎦ {} = {0}  {̈} + ⎝ +  ⎣ 2 2 0 2 0 2 or

The solution forms depend on whether the system is over, under, or critically damped. The damping ratios are given by   = ( +   2 ) 2  The third step is to apply the initial conditions to find the constants of integration that appear in 1 () and 2 ()  We know {} and {} are related by {} = [ ] {} and {} = [ ] [] {}  The initial conditions for { ()} are given by { (0)} = [ ] [] { (0)} {̇ (0)} = [ ] [] {̇ (0)} 

An interesting feature of this choice of coordinates is that all the damping is now in the second mode; the first mode will exhibit an undamped free response.

(b) Direct Method - Consider a system whose matrix EOM is given by [] {̈} + [] {̇} + [] {} = 0

We substitute the assumed solution of the form, {} =  {} exp ()  into the EOM to obtain ¡ 2 ¢  [] +  [] + [] {} exp () = 0

The determinant of the matrix, 2 [] +  [] + []  must be zero in order to avoid trivial solution for {}  This equation is called characteristic equation whose solution renders eigenvalue  The eigenvalues may be real or complex, but the real part of  is never positive if the damping coefficients are positive. ¡ ¢ We substitute  back into the eigenvalue problem, 2 [] +  [] + [] {} = {0}  to find the eigenvectors, {}  It should be noted that if a pair of eigenvalues are complex conjugate of each other, so are the corresponding eigenvectors.

39. The two degree-of-freedom damped and forced system of Figure 6.78 oscillates about its equilibrium position. Use Lagrange’s equation to formulate the problem and then solve the equations of motion for  () =  cos . Check whether proportional damping is a valid model here. If not, how can the system be modified so that such a model is valid? Make this modification, and then solve via modal analysis.

Two degree-of-freedom general system.

Solution: Let us first formulate the EOM using Lagrange’s equation. We assume small displacements and rotations. In this way we can assume that the spring and damping forces act essentially in the vertical direction. The kinetic, potential, and Rayleigh dissipation energies are given next: 1 1 1 ̇21 + 2 ̇22 2 2 1 1  = 1 21 + 2 (22 − 1 )2 2 2 1 2  = ̇2  2  =

We see that the property matrices are symmetrical, as expected. Because the damping matrix has a zero entry in row 1 column 1 above, the damping is non-proportional. There are many ways to modify our current problem so that damping becomes proportional.

Response The first step is to solve the undamped, free vibration problem for the eigenvalues and eigenvectors. The eigenvalue problem is given by ¢ ¡ 2 − [] + [] {} = {0} 

The second step is to let { ()} = [ ] { ()}  where { ()} is the modal coordinate: [] [ ] {̈ ()} +  [] [ ] {̇ ()} + [] [ ] { ()} = { ()} The third step is to multiply the matrix EOM by [ ] from the left. We now have

In each discuss the results, especially regarding how the p damping for each mode depends on the proportional damping model. Let  be 1 rad/s if necessary. Solution: The difference between this problem with damping and the previous problem without damping is that the convolution (Duhamel) responses must now include the more general impulse response function.

CHAPTER 6 MULTI DOF VIBRATION

43. A vibrating mass is found to be oscillating with an amplitude that is too large. To reduce this amplitude, an auxiliary system is added as shown in Figure 6.79. This problem generally occurs when the forcing frequency is too close to the natural frequency of the primary system.

Original system and system with vibration absorber.

The auxiliary system acts as a damped vibration absorber. (a) Derive the equation of motion of the system plus absorber and then solve to determine what values of absorber mass , stiffness 2 , and damping  must be selected in order to minimize the vibration amplitude of primary mass . Assume that  = 025 and  () = 0 cos . (b) Suppose that we can accept a design where 2 1  is selected so that neither natural frequency of the combined system,  1 and  2 , is closer than 5% to the driving frequency . Devise the system that achieves this criterion. Solution: This problem of the damped vibration absorber falls into the category of a 2 DOF damped system with the governing EOM given by ⎫ ⎡ ⎤⎧ ⎫ ⎡ ⎤⎧ ⎫ ⎡ ⎤⎧ ⎫ ⎧ ⎨ ⎬ ⎨ ⎬ ⎬ ⎨ ⎨  0 ̈1  − ̇1 1 + 2 −2  () ⎬ 1 ⎣ ⎦ ⎦ ⎦ +⎣ +⎣ =  ⎩ ⎭ ⎩ 0 ⎭ 0  ⎩ ̈ ⎭ −  ⎩ ̇ ⎭ −  2

where 1 = 3 = 0 2 =  2 = 0 1 =  1 =  2 =  and 3 = 0 We also note that the damping matrix can be written as a proportion of the mass and stiffness matrices using the concept of proportional damping. Therefore, the solution to this system is well-known to us. This is a well-known problem with a well-known solution. It is known that, in the absence of damping, that placing a secondary mass and spring that has the same ratio as the ratio of the primary mass and the spring (1  p = 2  with  = 0 in our case) will eliminate the response at the original natural frequency of 1  Therefore, the simple answer for part (a) is to let  = 0 and 2 = 1 () = 0251  In the next part, we will verify this claim in addition to obtaining the response amplitude at other values of (1 )  (2 ) and in the presence of damping. (a) Response amplitude


477 It is important to note that the response amplitude refers to the amplitude of the response that specifically responds at the forcing frequency The total response would not make sense because it depends on the initial conditions. In order to avoid confusion, let us denote the driving frequency as    Let  () = 0 exp ( )  and the response is given by { ()} = {} exp (  ). We are selectively looking for the solution at the forcing frequency (particular solution).

We can plot the dimensionless response amplitude of the primary mass, |1 |  (0 )  as a function of the dimensionless forcing frequency,  for various values of ̂, ̂ and ̂ The figures that follows shows the dimensionless response amplitude (also called magnification ratio) for ̂ = 025 and ̂ 2 = 1. It is reasonable to assume that the forcing frequency is at the natural frequency of the original system. Therefore, we are interested in the response amplitude when  = 1 We expect to see zero response at  = 1 and ̂ = 0 as we claimed earlier.

Magnification ratio as a function of dimensionless forcing frequency. ̂ is varied from 0 to 1.4 at 0.2 interval.

The MATLAB code that was used to create the figure above is given: clear mr=0.25; r=[0:0.002:1.5]; cr=[0:0.2:1.4]’; wr=1; W=1; [R Cr]=meshgrid(r,cr); Amp=sqrt(((1-R.^2./W.^2).^2+(Cr.*R).^2)./((R.^4./W.^2 ... -(1+1./W.^2+mr).*R.^2+1).^2+(Cr./W.^2.*R.*(1-R.^2-R.^2./W.^2)).^2)); plot(r, Amp) axis([0 1.5 0 12])


479 Since we are interested in the response amplitude when  = 1 only, we can plot |1 ( = 1)|  (0 1 ) as a function of ̂ 2 (recall ̂2 = (1 )  (2 )) and ̂ while keeping ̂ = 025

Magnification ratio when the system is forced at the natural frequency of the original system ( = 1) as a function of (1 )  (2 ). ̂ is varied from 0 to 1.4 at 0.2 interval.

The MATLAB code that was used to create the figure above is given: clear mr=0.25; R=1; cr=[0:0.2:1.4]’; wr=[0:0.02:5]; [W Cr]=meshgrid(wr,cr); Amp=sqrt(((1-R.^2.*W.^2).^2+(Cr.*R).^2)./((R.^4.*W.^2 ... -(1+W.^2+mr).*R.^2+1).^2+(Cr.*W.^2.*R.*(1-R.^2-R.^2.*W.^2)).^2)); plot(wr, Amp) Note that ̂ 2 = 0 when the secondary mass is zero. As we have known all along, we can completely eliminate the response if we set ̂ = 0 and select the secondary system such that 2  = 1  When 2  = 1  the damping increases the response amplitude. Another way to reduce

CHAPTER 6 MULTI DOF VIBRATION

the response amplitude is select the system with large (1 )  (2 ) or simply a more flexible secondary system (small 2 ) than the original system. This may be impractical because the displacement of the secondary mass may become too large. It is interesting to note that increasing damping does not always reduce the response amplitude. For low (1 )  (2 )  it is beneficial to have low damping while the opposite is true for high (1 )  (2 )  The value of (1 )  (2 ) when the effect of damping is reversed is a function of  In this case where  = 025 (1 )  (2 ) = 1086 is when the effect of damping is reversed. Small damping is desirable for (1 )  (2 )  1086, and large damping is desirable for (1 )  (2 )  1086 When (1 )  (2 ) = 1086 the damping has no effect on the response amplitude. (b) Selection of 2  so that natural frequencies are not close to the forcing frequency The natural frequency squared are the eigenvalue of the eigenvalue problem given by ¢ ¡ [] −  2 [] {} = {0} 

Note that damping does not enter into the natural frequency calculations. In our case, we can write ⎡ ⎤ 1 + 2 −  2 −2 ⎣ ⎦ {} = {0}  2 −2 2 −  The characteristic equation is the determinant of the matrix and is given by 4 − (2 + 1 + 2 )  2 + 1 2 = 0 Re-write as 4

481 which are the dimensionless parameters used in part (a). The criteria that the natural frequencies are not within 5% of the forcing frequency can be written as ̂   105 and ̂   095 The following figure shows the two natural frequencies (normalized by the natural frequency of the original system) for various values of 2 1 with vertical bars at ̂ = 095 and 105

The MATLAB code that generated the figure is: clear mratio=0.25; Rratio=[0:0.05:1.5] for i=1:length(Rratio); rr=Rratio(i); rsquare=roots([1 -(rr+1+rr*mratio) rr]); rsquare=sort(rsquare); r1(i)=sqrt(rsquare(1)); r2(i)=sqrt(rsquare(2)); end plot(Rratio, r1,’k’, Rratio, r2,’k’)

As it turns out, it is not too difficult to meet the condition that the natural frequencies are not within 5% of the forcing frequency. We need to select 2 1 such that it is greater than 0.075. The problem asks for the value of 2  that will satisfy this criteria. We cannot give an explicit value for 2  but as a ratio (2 )  (1 ) such that 2 2 1  =  1   2  2  =  1  1  For  = 025, we have 2  1   03 or  33 1  2  That is, the natural frequency of a system composed of the secondary mass and the spring must be √ greater than 03 times the natural frequency of the original system. This answers the questions posed in this problem. We have concluded in part (a) that the best secondary system is zero or light damping with (1 )  (2 ) = 1 The additional criteria of (1 )  (2 )  33 does not alter our previous conclusions.


483 Problems for Section 6.9.1 – Unrestrained Systems 44. Figure 6.80 may be used as a simple model of a mobile robotic arm undergoing forced motion. The forcing is at the base of the arm. Derive the matrix equation of motion, and solve it in general for the response if (a)  () = (), and (b)  () = cos 2. Solve this problem in two ways: (i) using a constraint matrix, and (ii) directly without a constraint matrix.

Eigenvalue Problem Without Using Constraint Matrix First we solve the free vibration problem. Assume the following harmonic response in free undamped vibration: ⎧ ⎫ ⎧ ⎫ ⎨ ⎬ ⎨⎬ 1 =   ⎩ ⎭ ⎩⎭ 2

Differentiating this and substituting into the matrix EOM, combining terms and canceling the exponential that is common to all terms, we find: ⎡ ⎤⎧ ⎫ ⎧ ⎫ 2 ⎨⎬ ⎨0⎬  − 1  − ⎣ ⎦  (1) = −  −  2 ⎩  ⎭ ⎩ 0 ⎭ 2

The determinant of the characteristic matrix yields a quadratic in  2 that is solved for the two natural frequencies. The characteristic equation is then ¢¡ ¢ ¡  − 1 2  − 2  2 − 2 = 0 1 2  4 − (1 + 2 )  2 + 2 − 2 = 0   4 − (1 + 2 )  2 = 0 ¤ £ 1 22 1 2  − (1 + 2 )   2 = 0

The eigenvalues (natural frequency squared) are

 20 = 0 and 21 =

(1 + 2 )   1 2

The mode shape associated with each natural frequency is obtained by substituting the natural frequencies into the eigenvalue problem (Equation (1)). However, for 2-DOF unrestrained system, it is easy to obtain them using our physical intuition. The mode shape that is associated with  0 = 0 must be { 1 1 } because it must correspond to the rigid body motion. There must be no relative motion and no deformation in the spring. The mode shape associated with  1 must be such that there is no translation. The center of mass does not translate, and this can only happen if the ratio of the displacements of 1 to that of 2 is −2 1  Therefore, the second mode shape must be { 2 −1 }  If we assume that the initial conditions are zero, then we can proceed directly to the forced response. We first need to normalize the above modes in order to use the modal analysis approach. Let us normalize the modes now using the relation {} []{} = 1 Then, let the normalized modes be given by  {} : ⎤⎧ ⎫ ⎡ ⎨1⎬ 0  1 1 2 ⎦ ⎣ = 1 =⇒ 0 = √  0 {1 1}  0 2 ⎩ 1 ⎭ where  = 1 + 2 

Then,

Step 2-3: Equation of Motion for Modal Coordinates via Modal Analysis The free response of an undamped and unforced system will be given by: ⎧ ⎫ ⎨ ⎬ 1 = (1 + 2 ) {}0 +  {}1 cos (1  − 1 )  ⎩ ⎭ 2

Our goal is to find the forced response of a damped system. The damping is proportional in our case, and we will perform modal analysis. We assume that the solution to our current problem can be expanded in terms of modes of the undamped and unforced system. That is, { ()} = {}0 0 () + {}1 1 () where the modal coordinates, 0 () and 1 ()  are to be found. In a matrix notation, we write { ()} = [] { ()}  where the  column of the modal matrix [ ] is the  mode shape, {}  Substituting this and its second derivative into the forced matrix-vector EOM, and left-multiplying by {}0 and {}1 respectively, yields the decoupled EOM in terms of modal coordinates 0 () and 1 ()  Use the orthogonality given by {} [] {} =   {} [] {} =  2   to simplify the equation.

The impulse response function, 0 ()  is the solution to ̈0 =  ()  with zero initial conditions.

Problems for Section 6.11 — Periodic Structures

52. (a) For the three degree-of-freedom system shown in Figure 6.82, derive the equations of motion and solve for the frequencies and modes of vibration for the arbitrary stiffnesses 1  2  3  4 and masses 1  2  3 . Then simplify these results for the case where all the stiffnesses have the value  = 1 N/m and all the masses have the value  = 1 kg. Plot the modes and responses for 1 (0) = 05 cm and assume that all other initial conditions are equal to zero.

Figure 6.82: Three degree-of-freedom periodic system.

(b) For the previous system, suppose that 1 = 3 = 4 =  = 1 N/m, 1 = 2 = 3 =  = 1 kg, and 2 = (1 + ) = (1 + 005), where  signifies a stiffness imperfection. Solve for the frequencies and modes of vibration and plot the modes and responses for 1 (0) = 05 cm and all other initial conditions equal zero. Compare the results with and without imperfections. How do these results compare with those discussed in the section. Discuss.

CHAPTER 6 MULTI DOF VIBRATION

Problems for Section 6.13 — Fluid Sloshing in Containers 57. Since liquids have damping characteristics, suggest possible equivalent mechanical models for a sloshing liquid that includes damping. Solution: Assuming that the sloshing can be approximated as linear, then we can assume a viscous damping oscillator model for the sloshing behavior.


515

58. Suppose a container with interior fluid is in an aircraft. The aircraft leaves on its flight with full tanks and arrives at its destination with almost empty tanks. How could this fact be incorporated in the equivalent mechanical model? Solution: As the tanks empty the sloshing behavior generally increases in amplitude. We can imagine that the sloshing results in an assumed harmonic/periodic set of impacts on the interior of the container. This could be modeled as a harmonic/periodic forcing with increasing amplitudes in time.

59. Suppose a container with interior fluid is in a spacecraft in orbit around the Earth. What additional considerations need to be incorporated in the equivalent mechanical model? Solution: In space there is microgravity. Any interior fluid evolves toward equilibrium, which is a spherical volume in microgravity. We can decide to block such formations by including screens and baffles in the tank. Sloshing will be generally slow dynamically.

Problems for Section 6.15 — Rayleigh’s Quotient 62. For a two disk torsional system (see Figure 6.81) with its two ends fixed to walls, follow the procedure of Example 6.24 to evaluate the two approximate frequencies of oscillation. Explain the procedure used to guess the respective mode shapes. Check that the approximate fundamental frequency is above the exact frequency and that the second frequency is below the exact frequency.

Solution: Here we take a restrained system undergoing torsional motion. Before solving it approximately, we solve it exactly for free vibratory motion. We need to derive the EOMP using free-body diagrams for each disk and apply Newton’s second law of motion in torque form:  =  ̈ The stiffness of the shafts connecting the rotors are  = ()  From the free-body diagrams, we find 1 ̈1 + (1 + 2 ) 1 − 2 2 = 0 2 ̈2 + (2 + 3 ) 2 − 2 1 = 0 Assuming harmonic motion of the form  cos ( + ) for each disk results in the equation given by ⎫ ⎧ ⎫ ⎡ ⎤⎧ ⎨ ⎬ ⎨0⎬ 1 + 2 − 1 2 −2 1 ⎣ ⎦ =  −  +  −  2 ⎩  ⎭ ⎩ 0 ⎭ 2

Taking the determinant of the characteristic matrix leads to the characteristic equation given by ¢¡ ¢ ¡ 1 + 2 − 1  2 2 + 3 − 2 2 − 22 = 0

from which we find the two natural frequencies of this system by solving the quadratic equation in  2 or ¸ ∙ 1 + 2 2 + 3 2 1 2 + 2 3 + 3 1 4  + + = 0  − 1 2 1 2 In order to simplify our comparisons, we assume 1 = 2 = 3 = 1 and 1 = 2 = 1, with appropriate units. Then the quadratic equation becomes  4 − 42 + 3 = 0

√ from which, 1 = 1 rad/s and  2 = 3 = 1 7321 rad/s With these frequencies, the modes (1 2 )12 can be found from the characteristic matrix equation, and then the free vibration is the superposition of the two harmonics, as we have seen before. The modal ratios are µ ¶ 1 = 1 2 1 µ ¶ 1 = −1 2 2


521 Now we can approximate the solution of the frequency problem using the energy procedure. Assume here that 1 () = 1 cos  and 2 () = 2 cos  The kinetic energy, and its maximum, are given by 1 1 2 2 1 ̇1 + 2 ̇2 2 2 1 1 max = 1 (1 )2 + 2 (2 )2  2 2  =

Equate max to max and solve for 2 to obtain 2 =

(1 + 2 ) 21 + (2 + 3 ) 22 + 22 1 2  1 21 + 2 22

Assuming the same parameter values as above, we have 2 =

221 + 222 + 21 2  21 + 22

We now assume ratios 1 2 for each mode and then evaluate the respective frequency. Assume for the first mode 1 2 = 1 Then, 621 = 3 2 = 221 For the second mode assume 1 2 = −1 Then, 2 =

2 21 = 1 221

We see that in this instance we obtain the same frequencies as the exact case. This is because we used the exact modal ratios. Try this problem with different numerical values. You will see that Rayleigh coefficients are highly sensitive to the assumed modal ratios. The reason for this is that the mode shapes are not sensitive to the exact values of the mass and the stiffness.

63. How would Rayleigh’s quotient need to be altered for an unrestrained system? Apply the method to a general two degree-of-freedom undamped system in unrestrained rectilinear motion. Solution: It is straightforward to show that Rayleigh’s quotient will work for an unrestrained system. For example, begin with Example 6.25. Take this system and reduce it to a unrestrained 2 DOF system by setting the stiffness to zero at the wall. Doing this, the stiffness and the mass matrices become ⎡ ⎤ ⎡ ⎤ 1 −1 1 0 ⎦ and [] =  ⎣ ⎦ [] =  ⎣ −1 1 0 1

Note that we cannot use the procedure of Example 6.25 to estimate the first mode shape because [] has no inverse and we cannot derive the static displacement. But, we know the first mode shape here because this is an unrestrained system with first mode: {}1 = {1 1} Rayleigh’s quotient for the first natural frequency is {}1 []{}1  21 =  {}1 []{}1 Here, we only need to evaluate the numerator given by ⎡ ⎤⎧ ⎫ 1 −1 ⎨ 1 ⎬ ⎦ = 0 {}1 []{}1 = {1 1} ⎣ −1 1 ⎩ 1 ⎭

Thus, we see that the first natural frequency estimate is 0 as it should be. To estimate the second natural frequency we could assume ⎧ ⎫ ⎨1 ⎬ {}2 = ⎩ −1 ⎭ and Rayleigh’s quotient for the second natural frequency is s {}2 []{}2 2 = {}2 []{}2 r r √ 4  = 2  = 2 

The left section of the string has a constant mass per unit length  and the right section of the string has the constant mass per unit length 2 (a) From a free-body diagram and Newton’s second law of motion, under what assumptions can the tension be considered constant? (b) Assuming constant tension in both strings, find the frequency equation, the first three natural frequencies, and plot the first three mode shapes.

The tension must be drawn so that the strings have positive slopes. For the heavier string, 2 is


543 defined positive to the left, and therefore, the positive slope means that the function increases as we go to the left.

555 Problems for Section 7.3 — Axial Vibration of Beams 13. Consider a system consisting of discrete masses connected by springs in series as shown in Figure 7.41.

(a)  =  N/m,  = 10 m We need to solve for the roots of tan 10 = − or tan 10 +  = 0

19. An unrestrained beam lies on a horizontal and smooth surface and at  = 0 is forced at one end by  (), as shown in Figure 7.43. Derive the general response for any forcing function using the known eigenvalues and eigenfunctions. Then evaluate the specific steady-state response for the following specific forcing functions: (a)  () = 0 (), where () is the unit step function (b)  () = sin Ω for the case where Ω =   2 (c)  () = 1 − 0 , 0 ≤  ≤ 0

(d)  () = (), where () is the Dirac delta function.

Figure 7.43: Beam on smooth (frictionless) surface.

Solution: The equation of motion for this problem is given by 

with boundary conditions given by ¯  ¯¯ = 0  ¯  =0 ¯  ¯¯  ¯ = 0  =

Note that  (0 ) is the Dirac delta function and is needed because the force is applied at  = 0 instead of the whole domain. We have solved parts of the eigenvalue problem before, that is, we have solved for a free end. Here, both ends are free and therefore we need to evaluate the constants again. We can see that the motion of this beam is an axial vibration superposed on a rigid-body translation. The eigenvalue problem results in the general modal function: () = 1 sin  + 2 cos   0 () = 0  0 (0) = 0 Applying the boundary conditions results in the following:  0 (0) = 0 = 1  0 () = 0 = −2 sin 

There is a rigid-body mode: 0 () = 1 +2 that corresponds to  0 = 0 1 and 2 are the constants of integration. Applying the boundary conditions, we find that 0 () = 2  The constants, 2 and 2  can be determined so that the modal functions are normalized such that Z  0

The initial conditions can be satisfied by applying them to the general solution and solving for  and   The total solution is then given by Equation 3 where ̂ () is given by Equation 2. For an undamped case, the steady-state response is the total response because the homogeneous solution does not decay with time. The total response consists of the homogeneous solution that requires the knowledge of initial conditions and the particular solution. Since the initial conditions are not given, we can assume an arbitrary initial conditions. If we assume zero initial displacements and zero initial velocities, the forced solution (convolution solution) is the steady-state solution. Another possibility is to assume that there is a small damping in the system to eliminate the need for the initial conditions. From an engineering purposes, all systems have damping. Therefore, the homogeneous solution always decays with time, and we can take the particular solution to be the steady-state solution. We will take this approach.

21. Derive the natural frequencies and mode shapes of the longitudinally vibrating uniform beam of Figure 7.44. Sketch the first three mode shapes. What will change in the analysis if the beam is vertical?

Solution: If the orientation of the beam changes, only the static deflection will be changed. The natural frequencies and the mode shapes will be the same for both horizontal and vertical beams. This is a clamped-free beam. The general expression for the mode shape is given by  () =  cos  +  sin  +  cosh  +  sinh  The boundary conditions are  (0) = 0  0 (0) = 0  00 () = 0 and  000 (0) = 0 Apply the boundary conditions to obtain  + = 0 + = 0 − cos  −  sin  +  cosh  +  sinh  = 0  sin  −  cos  +  sinh  +  cosh  = 0 − cos  −  sin  −  cosh  −  sinh  = 0 We can solve for three coefficients in terms of one coefficient.

(cos  + cosh ) (sin  + sinh ) (cos  + cosh )   =  (sin  + sinh )

 = −

We can proceed with substitution to the final boundary condition (that we have not used yet to solve for   and ) to find the characteristic equation. Another option is to write the boundary

Solution: Let us derive the general solution. We start with the equation of motion for a longitudinal beam given by 2 2  2 −  2 = 0 on 0 ≤  ≤    and the boundary conditions are

23. Consider the stepped shaft made of the same material of density  and modulus  shown in Figure 7.45. Determine the characteristic equation for the natural frequencies of the system as it undergoes axial motion. Let 1 ( ) denote the displacement in the shaft with the fixed end, and 2 ( ) be the displacement in the shaft with free end.

Figure 7.45: Stepped shaft undergoing axial motion.

Solution: The equations of motion are 2 2 =  for 0 ≤ 1 ≤ 1 1 2 21 2 2 2 2 = 2 2 for 0 ≤ 2 ≤ 2   2 1

Note that the areas 1 and 2 can be canceled from the equations, so that we can write a single partial differential equation that applies for the whole range. For now, let us keep the two equations. In addition, we let 2 = 0 at the free end. The boundary conditions are 1 (0 ) = 0 ¯ 2 ¯¯ = 0  ¯2 

In addition to the two conditions at the ends, there are two more conditions where the transition occurs. The displacement and the transmitted force must be continuous. We write 1 (1  ) = −2 (2  ) ¯ ¯ 1 ¯¯ 2 ¯¯ 1 = 2  1 ¯1  2 ¯2 

CHAPTER 7 CONTINUOUS MODELS

The reason why the displacements at the joint are equal and opposite is that 1 is defined positive to the right and 2 is defined positive to the left. We are now ready solve the eigenvalue problem. Let 1 (1  ) =  (1 )  () and 2 () =  (2 )  ()  Note that 1 (1  ) and 2 (2  ) share the same time function. We can write  () = exp () because the motion is sinusoidal in time. The eigenvalue problem is now given by 2   2  = 0 for 0 ≤ 1 ≤ 1 + 21  2   2  = 0 for 0 ≤ 2 ≤ 2  + 22  and  (0) = 0  0 (0) = 0  (1 ) = − (2 ) 1  0 (1 ) = 2  0 (2 ) 

(7.1)

From the spatial ordinary differential equations, we have the forms of  (1 ) and  (2 ) given by  (1 ) =  cos 1 +  sin 1  (2 ) =  cos 2 +  sin 2  where  =

Solving for  in terms of  using the third relation, and substituting into the fourth relation we find the characteristic equation, 1 cos 2 cos 1 − 2 sin 2 sin 1 = 0 The mode shapes are given by  (1 ) =  sin (1 ) sin 1 cos (2 )   (2 ) = − cos 2 This completes the solution to the eigenvalue problem. For demonstration purposes, let us find the mode shapes for the case 1 2 = 4 and 1 2 = 12. Then, the characteristic equation is given by 4 cos 2̂ cos ̂ − sin 2̂ sin ̂ = 0

Let  = 1 for 0 ≤  ≤ 1 = 1 + 2 − 2 for 0 ≤ 2 ≤ 2  and  () =  () for 0 ≤  ≤ 1 = − () for 1 ≤  ≤ 1 + 2 

The figure below shows the first mode shape with  = 1 Note that there is an abrupt slope change at the transition. The slope becomes four times steeper in order for the tension to be continuous.

and  cos  +  sin  = 0 We can substitute the values at this point to find  or we can delay substitution a bit longer. We can rewrite the characteristic equation as   cos  + sin  = 0 

One single number that determines the nondimensional wave number is  = 525 which has no units. The characteristic equation, 525 cos  + sin  = 0 can be solved for graphically or using root finding programs.

We now need an orthogonality condition. Let us write the orthogonality condition as  Θ̂ () · Θ̂ ()  =    where we have not defined the inner product   ·   yet. For all the other cases we have see in this book where there is no discrete inertia attached directly to the beam or rod, the inner product is defined as Z   ̂ () · ̂ ()  ≡ ̂ () ̂ () =    0

The solution to the initial value problem is then given by Equation 1 with constant coefficients given by Equation 4. Now, let us find how the eigenfunctions are orthogonal and how the inner products are defined. Orthogonality For problems with discrete inertial attached directly to a rod or a beam, the orthogonality condition is slightly different from the problems without discrete inertia.

42. Perform the necessary variations to derive Equation 7.62. Solution: Equation 7.62 is derived by beginning with the equation just before Equation 7.62 and integrating by parts and combining like terms. As an example of one term, begin with the first term under the integral µ ¶ Z 2 Z     ()    0 1

Our goal is to rewrite this in a form where we have the variation of the variable  instead of the variation of the derivative of the variable. In order to do this, we interchange the time and space integrals, and interchange the variation with the partial derivative, and integrate by parts (in time) as follows: Z 2    () () = () |21    1 Z 2  2 −  () 2   1 The first term on the right-hand side equals zero since the variation  is zero at 1 and 2  The second term is in the form we need. There will be other terms with the factor  emerging when we integrate the other terms by parts. All these terms are combined and lead to the first line of Equation 7.62. Since the variation  is arbitrary and independent of the variation of the second generalized coordinate  the factor of each variation is identically zero. This is how the equations of motion are derived. Additional terms result, i.e. the third line in Equation 7.62, which specify possible boundary conditions.

45. Derive the Bernoulli-Euler beam equation, Equation 7.74. State all assumptions. Solution: In this text, we start with the Timoshenko model to derive the Bernoulli-Euler beam model. The commonly used assumptions in deriving the Bernoulli-Euler beam equation are 1. There is no deformation due to shear, 2. There is no warping, and plane remains plane. 3. The radius of curvature is approximated as  00 , an approximation to the exact formula  = 32  00  (1 +  02 )  It is consistent with the small angle assumption. 4. The rotational kinetic energy is negligible compared to the translational kinetic energy.

46. For the simply supported uniform beam of Figure 7.54, undergoing transverse motion, derive the natural frequencies and the natural modes of vibration. Sketch the first three mode shapes. What will change in the analysis if the beam is on an inclined surface?

If the beam is now on a slope, gravity has a component in the axial direction of the beam. It add constant external force along the longitudinal direction. It will affect the static equilibrium. The modes of vibration are an intrinsic quality of the beam (its mass and geometry) and its boundary conditions. The natural frequencies and the mode shapes do not change.

where  cos  is the component of the gravity in the transverse direction. It is a constant once the inclination angle  is given. When the inclination angle is 0 the gravity acts only in the transverse direction. That is,  ( ) and  ( ) are related by  ( ) =  ( ) +  () 

48. A two-span uniform beam may be used as a simple model of a bridge. For this model, sketched in Figure 7.55, derive the frequency equations.

Figure 7.55: Two-span continuous uniform beam.

Solution: We need to have one modal function for each span. In addition we have the usual boundary conditions at each fixed end, plus compatibility at the center support. That is, the displacement, slope, moment, and shear must be continuous at the middle support. The modal functions are given by 1 (1 ) = 1 sin 1 + 1 cos 1 + 1 sinh 1 + 1 cosh 1 2 (2 ) = 2 sin 2 + 2 cos 2 + 2 sinh 2 + 2 cosh 2  The boundary conditions are 1 (0) = 0 1 (0) = 0 1

Note that 1 = 0 at the left end and 2 = 0 at the right end.

We reduce the number of constant coefficients to one. After substitution, we find the characteristic equation given by (1 − cos  cosh )(sin  cosh  − cos  sinh ) = 0 This completes our solution.

49. The beam of Figure 7.56 is released and rotates as a rigid body and impacts at an angular speed of Ω rad/s. Assume that upon impact the beam latches onto the support and there is no rebound and no loss in energy. At impact the beam transfers all of its rotational kinetic and potential energies into transverse vibrational motion. (a) Derive the response after impact. (b) How would the analysis proceed if there is a rebound?

Figure 7.56: A freely falling rotating beam.

Solution: (a) There are two aspects of this problem. The first is the beam rotation (assumed as a rigid-body) before impact. The second aspect is after impact (assumed with no rebound) when the beam undergoes transverse vibration. Let us consider the rotational aspect first, which allows us to calculate the angular velocity Ω just before the impact. We assume that the center of gravity of the beam is at the center. Since there is no dissipation of energy during rotation, the total energy remains constant: ∆ Kinetic Energy = ∆ Potential Energy 1 2  Ω =  2 2 1 1  ( 2 )Ω2 =  2 3 2 3 Ω2 = 2   where the moment of inertia of the beam is about the base.

Figure 7.57: Transversely vibrating beam with end mass.

Figure 7.58: Transversely vibrating beam with elastic support.

Solution: For the beam of Figure 7.57, the left end is fixed and the right end has a mass  attached. Therefore, at the fixed end there is no displacement (0 ) = 0 and no slope  0 (0 ) = 0 At the right end the shear in the beam is equal and opposite to the force due to the inertia of the mass:  000 ( ) =  ̈( ) and there is no moment resistance:  00 ( ) = 0 The shear condition can be found from the free-body diagram. With the displacement defined positive pointing downward, the shear, given by  000 ( )  on the positive face (whose normal is in the positive  direction) of the beam is positive upward. Due to Newton’s third law, we have an equal and opposite force on the mass,  Summing the forces in the vertical direction, we have ↓

 =  ̈( )

For the beam of Figure 7.58, the left end is fixed and the right end has a translational and torsional spring attached. At the fixed end the boundary conditions are as above. At the right end we have the satisfaction of the shear boundary condition:  000 ( ) − ( ) = 0 and the moment boundary condition:  00 ( ) −  0 ( ) = 0 It helps to see the boundary conditions if we place a fake mass (with zero mass) between the beam and the spring elements. The sign convention says the moment given by  00 is defined positive clockwise on the positive face of the beam.

The last boundary conditions comes from the fact that the shear force (due to the body at the right end of the beam) equals the mass of the body times its acceleration:  000 ( ) =  ̈( ) Using the product solution ( ) =  ()(), we have  000 () =  ()¨ = − () 2  or  000 () = − 2  () Replacing  2 with  4  we obtain the last boundary condition.

Note that the terms evaluated at the boundary are zeros (they are the same boundary conditions obtained from Hamilton’s principle.)

The damping ratio decreases as the natural frequency increases. Therefore, the impulse response function that corresponds to higher modes is more likely to be underdamped. The mode shape,  ()  is the mode shape of the related eigenvalue problem. The related eigenvalue problem is that of the system with no damping and no external forcing.

58. Derive the equation of motion and boundary conditions for a transversely vibrating beam using Hamilton’s principle. Assume small deflections. Let  equal the mass moment of inertia per unit length of the beam about its neutral axis. Figure 7.60 provides a sketch of the beam along with positive sign conventions.

Figure 7.60: Transversely vibrating beam subjected to an arbitrary continuous load ( ) along with boundary moments and shear forces.

Solution: Timoshenko beam was derived using Hamilton’s principle in the text. In the text, there was no consideration of rotary inertia due to rotation. Here, we will do the same for a beam undergoing translation but include rotation (but no shear deformation as in the Timoshenko beam), where there is an arbitrary applied load, and given boundary shears and moments. The resulting governing equation of motion that includes the effect of rotary inertia is known as Rayleigh’s equation. The strain energy for small deflections is 1  = 2

Figure 7.61: Beam with harmonic end load.

Solution: This is a cantilever beam of length  with harmonic end load equal to  cos Ω The beam is subject to a harmonic forcing, and the goal is to find the response at the harmonic forcing (particular solution). When there is damping, this corresponds to the steady-state response. In the absence of damping, the total response is a summation of the particular solution (that responds at frequency Ω) and the homogeneous solution (that responds at the damped natural frequency). We assume that  ( ) =  () cos Ω where  () is not the modal function in this case. It simply describes the spatial variation of the response when it responds at Ω Then, we find that  () satisfies  0000 () − Ω2  () = 0 Then,  () must be of the form,  () = 1 sin  + 2 cos  + 3 sinh  + 4 cosh  where 4 =

66. Discuss the modal participation factor for a vibrating beam that is subjected to loads as shown in Figure 7.62. (Refer to Section 6.6.2 for a discussion of the modal participation factor.)

Figure 7.62: Modal participation factor.

Solution: The modal participation factor is a measure of the importance of a particular mode to the complete response on an  DOF structure. Looking at the figure, we observe two loading cases and the first two modes of a transversely vibrating beam. We see that the first mode is qualitatively similar to the first loading shape, and the same is true for the second mode and load. The implication is that for loading case 1, the first mode is a major contributor to the complete response. For loading case 2, the second mode is a major contributor to the complete response. Therefore, given either loading case, it is likely that the first few (3-5) modes will be adequate to represent the complete response. In general, if a particular mode has positive and negative parts in the same physical locations as the load, then the load activates that mode most highly.

10. For the simply supported rectangular membrane of Section 8.1.1, suggest possible initial displacements ( ). Select one and solve for the complete solution. Assume zero initial velocity. Solution: Since the membrane is simply supported, any expression for ( ) must equal zero at the boundaries of the membrane. Possible initial displacements include a double sine of particular amplitude, or a “pyramid” type shape that almost comes to a point. However, the “point” can be problematic because of derivative discontinuities. Other possibilities include any arbitrary displaced membrane volume. The difficulty is in obtaining an analytical expression for this displacement function. The case we pick is the simplest case given by ( ) = sin

12. Repeat Problem 10 for an assumed initial velocity ( ), with zero initial displacement.

Solution: Since the membrane is simply supported, any expression for ( ) must equal zero at the boundaries of the membrane. Possible initial velocities include a double sine of particular amplitude, or a “pyramid” type shape that almost comes to a point. However, the “point” can be problematic because of derivative discontinuities. Other possibilities include any arbitrary velocity contour. The difficulty is in obtaining an analytical expression for this velocity function. For example, it is possible that for some reason one part of the membrane has a significant initial velocity and another has negligible velocity, perhaps due to an impact. Such an initial velocity distribution can be established experimentally. The case we pick here is the simplest one given by ( ) = sin

where the moments are expressed in terms of displacements (Equation 8.30-8.32). Substituting Equation 8.39 into boundary conditions, we find that it satisfies all 12 conditions. Looking at the general solution, Equation 8.38, we have terms that include sines and cosines, and hyperbolic sines and cosines. The cosine terms cannot satisfy the zero displacement conditions at the  = 0 boundaries. The hyperbolic sine and cosine terms grow without bound for larger  or  and therefore cannot satisfy the boundary conditions. Only the sin  sin  term can satisfy the boundary conditions.

P Solution: The trial function can be written as  () = =1  Y () where, here,  = 2 and 2 3 Y1 () =  and Y2 () =   From Section 8.3.2, begin with the axial vibration version of Equation 8.41 (see previous problem), where () = (1 − ) and () = (1 − ) R   ()    2   0  = R  =   () () () 0

where () = (1 − ), () = (1 − ) and where Y1 () = 2 and Y2 () = 3  Now we evaluate the integrals given by Z  1 11 = (1 − )4  = 5 30 0 Z  1 12 = (1 − ) 5  = 6 42 0 Z  1 22 = (1 − ) 6  = 7 56 0 Z  1 11 = (1 − )(2)2  = 3 3 0 Z  3 12 = (1 − )(63 ) = 4 10 0 Z  ¡ ¢ 3 22 = (1 − ) 32 2  = 5  10 0

If we compare the fundamental frequency here (26) to that found in the previous problem using Rayleigh’s quotient, we see that this approximate result is not as accurate. This has to do with


713 the approximate mode shape we chose in this approximation. Note that the trial function satisfied the left-hand boundary condition, but did  satisfy the right-hand boundary condition ( (0) = 0 and  0 () = 0). Even so, we have a reasonable approximate frequency. The second frequency is not as likely to be a good approximation. As discussed in the section, we generally need twice as many terms in the trial function as the number of accurate frequencies.

The nonhomogeneous term occurs in the boundary condition, and the goal is to transform this problem so that the nonhomogeneous term occurs in the equation of motion.

We now have successfully moved the nonhomogeneous term to the equation of motion using  ( ) instead of  ( )  Instead of solving a problem with a time varying moment on the boundary, we are now solving a problem with a time varying distributed load (right-hand side of the equation above).

CHAPTER 9 SDOF VIBRATION: PROBABILISTIC FORCES

Problems for Section 9.2 — Motivation 2. For the following applications, make a list of parameters and forces that are needed to analyze the problem and distinguish between those that can be assumed deterministic and those that must be described probabilistically: (a) airplane design, (b) ship design, (c) turbomachinery design, (d) mechanical watch movements, (e) computer hard drive, (f) automobile internal combustion engine, (g) automobile body.

Solution: In all these applications, most of the geometric dimensions can be assumed deterministic. The forcing is generally random and requires a probabilistic model. (a) for airplane design we need the mass distribution, stiffness distribution, effect of fuel mass and motion inside wing tanks (probabilistic), input forces from engines, atmospheric forces (probabilistic), movement by people inside cabin (probabilistic) (b) for ship design we need the mass distribution, stiffness distribution, effect of fuel mass and motion inside fuel tanks (probabilistic), input forces from engines, ocean and wind forces (probabilistic), movement by people inside the ship (probabilistic) (c) for turbomachinery design we need the mass distribution of the components, stiffness distribution as well, effect of motion of linkages and other components (probabilistic), as well as torques applied to the system (d) mechanical watch movements are primarily kinematic, forces are small, here due to the high precision, it will be necessary to make sure that all the motions are congruent and that the many moving parts do not have intersecting paths (e) computer hard drives are also high precision items, the high speed of drive rotation and the very close read/write heads are in extremely close proximity and very precise knowledge of the mass and stiffness properties are needed, as well as the effects of the air inside the container and how it is compressed as the components move with respect to each other in high speed (f) auto IC engines are very complex machines with many moving parts operating in high precision at fast speeds, at high temperatures, so we need material thermal properties, mass-stiffness-damping properties in order to consider the dynamics, as well as the internal driving forces with every ignition (g) automobile bodies are large with complicated distributed masses, with also complicated distributed stiffness and damping properties, input forces come from aerodynamics forces, from people inside the cabin, and significant forces input from the wheels in all directions, and of course very large impact forces in case of an accident.

3. Discuss the possible shortcomings of Miner’s rule. Solution: Miner’s rule assumes that the order in which the various stress amplitudes occurs is irrelevant. It assumes failure occurs at a damage total equal to one. These are both only approximate and have to be generalized to include broader definitions.

CHAPTER 9 SDOF VIBRATION: PROBABILISTIC FORCES

4. How would wind forces be different than ocean wave forces? Solution: Wind forces are different than ocean forces since wind is of a much lower density, and a vibrating structure in the ocean experiences large added masses.


727

5. How can the differences in material properties at different temperatures be considered for applications where the system operates across a large temperature differential? Solution: If a system operates in large ranges of temperatures, then the thermal expansion/contraction properties need to be understood and it becomes necessary to match these properties across diverse materials.

Problems for Section 9.3 — Random Variables 6. Write the meaning of each of the following mathematical expressions in words only: R∞ (a)  () (b)  (−∞) (c)  (+∞) (d) −∞  () = 1. Solution: (a) This is the cumulative distribution function that quantitatively describes the likely values of the random variable , telling us the probability that the random variable is less than or equal to a particular value  (b) This equals zero because the probability that the random variable is less than −∞ is zero. (c) This equals one because all values of the random variable are less than +∞ (d) This integral equals the area under the probability density function. The area under the density function between two  values represents the probability that the random variable will be in that range. Therefore, integrating over all values of  means that it is certain that the random variable will be in the range −∞ to +∞ This expression is also used to find the unknown constant coefficient in the probability density function.


729

7. What does the fact that  (1 ) ≤  (2 ) imply about the values of 1 and 2 ? Why? Solution: It means that 2 ≥ 1 since  () is a monotonically increasing function. Therefore, we must be moving to the right on the abscissa, going from 1 to 2 

731

9. Can the schematics in Figure 9.54 be probability density functions? Why?

Figure 9.54: Possible probability density functions.

Solution: All can be probability density functions except Figure (b). A density function must be zero or greater. It can be a spike or discontinuous.

CHAPTER 9 SDOF VIBRATION: PROBABILISTIC FORCES

10. Discuss the differences in the ways the cumulative distribution and the density depict random variability. Are there situations where one has the advantage over the other? Provide an example for the advantage of each. Solution: The cumulative distribution adds increments of probability when going from smaller parameter values to larger parameter values. The probability density is a normalized histogram that depicts higher probabilities by higher peaks in density; density functions are more commonly used to visualize how the probability is spread, and for calculations, but in some applications, distribution functions are used. For example, the term fragility is used in reliability theory to denote probability of damage.

11. If Pr{ ≤ 1 } = 01 and Pr{ ≤ 2 } = 02, sketch the probability density function for random variable . What is Pr{1   ≤ 2 }? Solution: We know that the total area under the density function must equal 1. Therefore, since Pr{ ≥ 2 } = 08 and Pr{ ≤ 1 } = 01 that only leaves a probability area equal to 0.1. This is the probability Pr{1 ≤  ≤ 2 } Or, Pr{1 ≤  ≤ 2 } is simply Pr {1 ≤  ≤ 2 } = Pr{ ≤ 2 } − Pr{ ≤ 1 } = 01

(c)  ln  1 ≤  ≤ 2 (d)  2 ≤  ≤ 5, where , , and  are constants. Solution: We will use the normalization property of the density function to evaluate the constants. R1 R1 (a) 0 3(2 − 1 ) must equal 1, where 2 = 1 and 1 = 0 Therefore, since 3 0  = 3 this cannot be a density function. (b) This cannot be a density function because the normalization integral is unbounded and has a value of infinity. R2 R2 (c) We evaluate  to make this a density function.  1 ln  must equal 1.

24. Suppose a random variable has a probability density function with a very broad range of values. Even though the density function is well defined, what options does a designer have when dealing with such a broad parameter variability? Solution: For cases with very broad density functions the designer can determine whether the operating range is in a narrow range and in that case the designer can still work with that variable. Otherwise, it may be necessary to perform tests in order to revise and update the density to a narrower range to get more data on the parameter.

29. For the Gaussian random variable , numerically estimate the probability Pr{  0} for (a) mean value  = 10 and standard deviation  = 10, and (b) mean value  = 10 and standard deviation  = 1. Can either of these be used as models for a positive definite variable? Explain. Solution: The Gaussian probability density function is given by ¸ ∙ 1 1 − 2 )   () = √ exp − ( 2   2 (a) For the given values of  = 10 and  = 10 the probability, Pr{  0}, is given by ¸ ∙ Z 0 Z 0 1 1  − 10 2 √ exp − ( Pr{  0} = )  = 0 15866  ()  = 2 10 −∞ −∞ 10 2 Either numerical integration or normal table is needed.

and the sum of the two equals one, as it should since the complete area under the density is evaluated. These integrals were computed numerically using MAPLE (b) For this part the standard deviation is much smaller. Therefore, we expect that the spread of values is much smaller, and much less area is in the negative  region. ¸ ∙ Z 0 1 1  − 10 2 √ exp − ( Pr{  0} = )  = 7 6199 × 10−24  2 1 −∞ 1 2 This number is effectively zero. Again as a check, let’s find the remaining probability. Z ∞ 1 1  − 10 2 √ exp(− ( Pr{  0} = ) ) = 10 2 1 1 2 0

The numerical scheme returns an integral value 1.0. Round-off error effectively ignores values for  ≤ 0 Therefore, in the second case, this model can be used for a positive definite variable. In the first case, almost 16% of the possible values are negative, and, therefore, this is an inappropriate model for a positive definite variable.

30. Compare the lognormal and the Rayleigh probability density functions, both of which govern positive-definite variables. Compare the shapes of the plotted functions and how they shift as parameters are varied. Discuss the differences, if any, due to the fact that one is a function of two parameters and the other a function of one parameter. Solution: Comparing the lognormal and Rayleigh probability density functions: (i) the Rayleigh has most of its probability density centered about its lower values while the lognormal shifts to larger values, (ii) the lognormal can be fit using two parameters while the Rayleigh depends on one parameter value, perhaps in some instances making it “stiffer” and more difficult to fit to data,and (iii) the lognormal has “Gaussian” properties allowing us to use Gaussian tables, but the Rayleigh is a simpler function.

Problems for Section 9.7 — Random Processes 34. Strain gages are placed at two locations on a wing that is being tested in a wind tunnel. The first gage is near the fixed base of the wing and the other gage is near the free wing tip. Two tests are performed: (a) the wing vibration is recorded for low velocity laminar flow and (b) for high velocity turbulent flow. For each of these tests, discuss the following: (i) Describe and compare the time histories you would expect to see recorded by each strain gage; (ii) Discuss the type of cross correlation 1 2 ( ) you would expect between 1 and 2 , the locations of the gages. Solution: For laminar flow, we would expect very slow variations in flow velocities at both the tip and the base. If the flow profile is essentially the same along the length of the wing, meaning that the flow speed is about constant, then we may expect a high degree of correlation along the beam. Where there will be less correlation will be at the boundaries. The free tip will vibrate with larger motion than points near the fixed end. A narrow band process may be a good model. For turbulent flow past the wing, we expect large variations in flow velocity (speed and direction) between two points in the flow, even if these points are close to each other. This means that the wing will experience a significant variety of forces, even at points on the beam that are near to each other. Therefore, we expect low correlation between points more than a “turbulence scale distance” apart. A broad band model is necessary.

35. In Figure 9.56, discuss whether the processes are stationary.

Figure 9.56: Random processes.

Solution: In the three time histories shown, the first is oscillatory, perhaps in several frequencies. The general character of the motion seems to be regular and steady state, and likely stationary. The periodic large fluctuations appear in the second figure. Still, this process or time history appears regular and steady state, and likely stationary. The third time history is nonstationary. Its motion begins at  = 0 and appears transient.

36. From the expressions for wind and ocean wave power spectra, which parameters appear important for a proper characterization of the energy distribution? Solution: In both wind and ocean wave power spectra, wind speed is a critical parameter in establishing the energy distribution. For the ocean wave, if there is also a current, then its speed and direction is also a critical parameter. Other important parameters that are more difficult to discern are the medium properties, e.g., density of fluid.


761

37. Referring to the plot of the Pierson-Moskowitz ocean wave height spectrum (Figure 9.28), discuss the physical relationship between wind speed and wave height. Solution: From Figure 9.28, we see that the relationship between wind speed and wave height is on a general level, intuitive. The higher the wind speed the more energy is in the system, as shown by the area under the spectral density. Further, there is a larger density area with higher wave amplitudes, but the frequency content shifts to lower frequencies in all wind speed regimes.

45. Consider Figure 9.37 and describe in your own words the fundamental result depicted there graphically. Solution: Figure 9.37 demonstrates two concepts. First is the fundamental principle for stochastic dynamics of linear systems that the output spectrum equals the input spectrum times the system function. Second is the computational ease and physical justification for the white noise assumption. The product of curves shows that the system function for a lightly damped system filters the input spectrum about the system natural frequency, thus making irrelevant, mostly, the parts of the white noise input far above and far below that natural frequency, thus yielding accurate practical results.

Problems for Section 9.9 — Stochastic Response of a Linear MDOF System 46. Reduce the methodology of this section to the specific case of a two degree-of-freedom system. Solution: For a specific two DOF system, we begin with the following: 1 () = 11 1 () + 12 2 () 2 () = 21 1 () + 22 2 () Then we use these equations in all the subsequent derivations. For example, we will have expressions such as 1 1 ( ) and 2 2 ( ); 1 1 () and 2 2 () In this way, the expressions are specified for a two DOF system only.

where each component force vector {1 () 2 ()} is white noise. Transform the coupled equations of motion into modal coordinates and proceed with an analysis of this two degreeof-freedom system. Discuss any assumptions needed in progressing through the steps of the analysis. Solution: This is an undamped system. The methodology developed in Section 9.9 for the modal analysis of a damped structure was based on the general modal equation given by ̈ + 2    ̇ +  2  =  ()

 = 1 2  

In our case  = 2 In addition, we need to relate the modal forces 12 to the physical forces that are given here as white noise. We need to begin with the physical equations, utilizing [] and [] along with the force vector. The modal analysis procedure requires finding the modes and frequencies, then normalizing the modes. This leads to the above equation in the modal coordinates. Our modal forces  are  () = {} { ()} where { () = {1 () 2 ()} . For a two-DOF system, then  = 1 1 + 2 2 ,  = 1 2 The procedure then follows essentially that given in Section 9.9, except that our system is undamped. Therefore, where simplifications were made assuming “lightly damped” system, here, this is exact. This will lead to X 2 | ()|2   ()   () = 

Problems for Section 9.10 — Lunar Seismic Structural Analysis 48. Refer to Figure 9.45 and the equation that it represents to discuss the physical nature of that description. How do variations in the parameters that define the power spectrum affect the velocity spectrum? Solution: Figure 9.45 shows a power spectrum in three dimensions. The spectrum is a function of time and frequency. Thus, it is a nonstationary response, and the equation that defines this curve  is a function of frequency and time.

49. Compare the seismic risk for a surface lunar structure as compared to that for a buried lunar structure. Solution: A buried lunar structure can be more susceptible to seismic activity because the complete structure will experience seismic input, whereas a surface structure experiences only input from its base.

52. For Problem 51, suppose calculations need to be simplified. Can the autocorrelation of the force be replaced by a triangular spike around  = 0? Try this replacement, justify the simplification, and solve. Compare with the results of Problem 51. Solution: In principle, this substitution for   ( ) can be made in the calculations of the previous problem.

With such an approximation, we need to be certain that we have captured the essence of the correlation structure. But also, we need to be careful that when we transform to the frequency domain of the spectral density, that is   () we have captured here the frequency content of the original random process.

53. What complications occur in the derivations of this section if the force is not assumed to be stationary? Solution: If the force is not stationary, then the mean value is no longer a constant, but a function of time, and the autocorrelations are not functions of time difference ( ) but rather functions of specific times (1  2 )

62. In the inverse problem with uncertainty, suppose that instead of a fixed constraint, we take an elastic constraint in order to generate an additional equation (as shown in Figure 9.58). The benefit of using a spring as a constraint, rather than just fixing mass 2 as in Figure 9.52, is that 3 can be varied to represent a free end using 3 = 0, or a fixed end using 3 = ∞. Derive the ratios needed to estimate the mean values and variances of the structural parameters. Assume that each mass is exactly 20 kg.

Two degree-of-freedom system.

Solution: Let us assume that 12 are known from measurements, and the total mass is known exactly. The individual stiffnesses and the masses are unknown. Therefore, we look to creating a second but related problem that will generate an additional equation without creating an additional unknown. To proceed with the inverse problem, assume that mass 2 is attached via a spring of constant 3 to a fixed wall. 3 must now be also evaluated, but we will be generating two additional equations. We can obtain the relations for 34 by using the figure for the equation of motion.

which is an algebraically complicated equation. However, we now have 4 equations needed to solve for the stiffinesses and masses, where the total mass  is assumed known.

Chapter 10 Vibration Control Problems for Section 10.1 — Motivation 1. In each of the following systems, identify the control component(s), if possible. Describe qualitatively how the control system affects system behavior: (a) airplane wing, (b) elevator, (c) standard transmission in car, (d) automatic transmission in car, (e) hand holding a pen and writing, (f) computer..

Solution: (a) The airplane wing is engineered; by extending and articulating the flaps the lift and drag are altered. If on autopilot the system is purely engineered, but if human controlled, then it may be considered to be hybrid. (b) An elevator has engineered control systems to ensure that the car smoothly reaches the desired floor. The human initiates the command to call the elevator car, and then provides the input to indicate the desired floor. (c) The standard transmission is hybrid. (d) The automatic transmission is engineered with the only human dependence being the implicit one of speed. (e) The hand holding a pen is human controlled. (f) the computer has many engineered controls, for example, control of the position of the head above a spinning disk in a hard drive.

The damping needs to be increased, mass needs to be decreased, and/or the stiffness needs to be decreased. For example, if the mass and stiffness cannot be varied, the damping coefficient must be increased to 12 N-s/m The response is shown below. The solid line is for the original system, and the dotted line is when  is increased to 12 N-s/m.

7. What applications exist where speed of response is more important than accuracy of response? Are there applications where the opposite is true? For what applications are both of critical importance? Solution: With this question we see one of the key trade-offs, speed versus accuracy. In some applications speed is more important, and in other applications accuracy is more important. Sometimes both are important and some sort of optimal solution becomes necessary. An example of the need for a swift response where modest accuracy is acceptable is the steering of a car. Of course, the level of accuracy must be sufficient so that we can guide the car to within several inches of a location. An example of the need for accuracy over speed is in medical apparatus. In surgery it is extremely important to have high accuracy, but speed may be a less important quality. Applications where both are crucial are, for example, military targeting applications. Of course, in situations where high accuracy is necessary, costs increase dramatically.

Problems for Section 11.4 — Perturbation or Expansion Methods 5. Using ̇ =  investigate the equation ̈ + (2 + ̇2 − 1)̇ +  = 0 for how damping adds and removes energy from the system depending on the values of  and ̇ Solution: Let ̇ =  ̇ = −(2 +  2 − 1) −  and

 −(2 +  2 − 1) −  =    A straightforward way to imagine the possible trajectories is to envision a circle of radius 1 such that 2 +  2 = 1 and then select key locations in the phase plane to figure out whether the trajectory is positive or negative. Here is how one can do this. Consider  = 0 Then for positive   1  is negative. For positive   1  is positive. This tells us that these trajectories approach the circle. Next, again for  = 0 for negative  such that ||  1 the slope is negative. And for negative  such that ||  1 the slope is positive. Again both trajectories at these locations approach the circle. A repetition of this method for  = 0 leads to similar conclusions. In summary, trajectories outside the circle decay toward the circle, and trajectories inside the circle grow toward the circle as  → ∞ The circle is therefore a limit cycle. Outside the limit cycle the system is damped and inside the limit cycle there is energy added to the system (negative damping). Another way to see this is to look at the coefficient of ̇ in the equation of motion, 2 + ̇2 − 1 The damping coefficient is positive outside of the circle, indicating energy loss, while it is negative inside of the circle, indicating energy gain.

Solution: Figure 11.12 demonstrates the nature of the nonlinear response of the Duffing oscillator for a variety of parameter values. An important point is that even with zero damping there is no blow-up of amplitudes at the “natural frequency” because of the slant, either to the right or left.

11. Provide a detailed discussion of the amplitude curves shown in Figure 11.13. Discuss the variation of the amplitude as a sweep is made of the frequency from small values to larger values. Solution: Figure 11.13 corresponds to the case of the Duffing oscillator with damping, in which case the curves are “closed” and do not go off to ever-increasing amplitudes. Here, we see paths along the curves as the frequency is increased or decreased, and because of the curved nature of the response amplitudes, jumps are possible, and there are regions along the response where certain amplitudes are not stable. This does not happen for undamped Duffing oscillators.

Solution: We need to consider two cases when the natural frequency is near the forcing frequency of 1 rad/s, and when it is far away from the forcing frequency. Excitation Far From Resonance Replace Ω2 by  2  the notation we use elsewhere for natural frequency of the linear system.

The free response does not have a period of 2 and therefore those coefficients are set to zero.

Γ2 Γ2 cos 2  + 22 ( 2 − 1)2 2 ( 2 − 1)2 ( 2 − 4)

Summing the zeroth and first order solutions, we obtain  ( ) = 0 () + 1 () ½ ¾ Γ Γ2 Γ2 cos 2 = 2 cos  +   +  − 1 2 2 (2 − 1)2 2 ( 2 − 1)2 (2 − 4) It should be noted that solution above is valid when the natural frequency is far away from the forcing frequency of 1 rad/s (and the multiple of forcing frequency such as 2 rad/s).


849 Weak Forcing Near Resonance One needs to consider the near-resonance case (  ≈ 1 rad/s). A stable (bounded) solution exists if the forcing magnitude is small (order of ). Let  2 = 1 +  Γ =  The governing equation becomes

¢ ¡ ̈ +  =   cos  + 2 −  

(Note that if we took Γ =  then the expansion leads to only secular solutions.) The expansion results in the following, 0 : ̈0 + 0 = 0 1 : ̈1 + 1 =  cos  + 20 − 0 2 : ̈2 + 2 = 21 − 1 .. .

We find that 1 = 1 = 0 to eliminate the secular terms in 2 ()  At this point we can add the two term approximate solution and can compare with non-resonant case such that  () = 0 + 1  = sin  +  

After expanding  we obtain

0 : ̈0 + 0 = Γ cos  1 : ̈1 + 1 = 20 − 0 .. . 0 only has the secular solution, and the method falls apart. That is why we look for a solution when Γ = .

14. Derive the forced periodic response of the equation 00 + (9 + ) − 3 = Γ cos  

Solution: Here it is assumed that  is small and that  and Γ are not too large. This leads to a reasonable perturbation approximation with few terms. Expand according to  (  ) = 0 ( ) + 1 ( ) + · · · and look for solutions having the 2 period of the forcing. Combine the  terms from the governing equation, ¡ ¢ 00 + 9 +   − 3 = Γ cos   which becomes

This is substituted into the 1 order equation to obtain 00

The coefficients of cos 3 and sin 3 comes not only from the forcing but also from the homogeneous solution. In order to eliminate secular terms in 1 ()  the coefficients of cos 3 and sin 3 must be zeros, or 3 1 3 0 Γ2 + Γ3 − 0 + 0 (20 + 20 ) = 0 128 2048 4 3 −0 + 3430 + 34 20 0 + 0 Γ2 = 0 128

CHAPTER 11 NONLINEAR VIBRATION

There are two equations and two unknowns, but it is not guaranteed that we will have one solution because the equations are nonlinear. It is somewhat easier to solve for  and  if we replace 2 + 2 with 2  Then, ¶ µ 3 2 3 2 1 Γ −  + 0 0 = − Γ3 128 4 2048 3 2 3 2 0 =  − Γ 4 128 We find that 0 = 0 This is expected because 0 = 0 means that the forcing and response is in phase. This is expected because there is no damping) and 0 is a root of µ ¶ 3 3 3 2 1 0 + Γ −  0 + Γ3 = 0 4 128 2048 One root is readily found, and it is

sµ ¶ 3 2 4 = − Γ  128 3

Now, let us compare the numerical results with the approximate solution (zeroth order solution). Let  = 04  = 1 and Γ = 2 The zeroth order solution is 1 0 ( ) = 0 cos 3 + cos   4 where 0 = 00043 −11014 or 10971 The figure on the left shows the three approximate solutions (0_1 ()  0_2 ()  and 0_3 ()), and the figure on the right shows the numerical solution calculated based on zero initial conditions. The first approximate solution is 1 0_1 () = 00043 cos 3 + cos   4


853

The result is not reassuring. The reason why even the best approximate solution does not fit the numerical solution well is because the approximate solution is the approximate solution to the particular solution only (recall we specifically looked for a solution that responds at the forcing period). We can make a better comparison if we add an arbitrary damping in the numerical solution so that the homogeneous solution (transient solution) will eventually die out. The figure next shows the numerical solution based on zero initial conditions with an arbitrary damping coefficient of  = 01 (0 in the equation of motion).

The figure shows a very good agreement between the approximate solution and the numerical solution after the transient response has died out. This may come as a surprise because of two reasons: 1. The approximate solution is for the particular solution of an undamped system, and the numerical solution is the total solution with damping. Recall that the amplitude of the particular solution depends on damping. In our case, the damping coefficient is small such that the two solutions agree well after the transient effects have died out. With increasing  we expect the results will deviate. 2. The value of  used here (0.4) is not so small. The results shown in the first plots make it seem that the approximate solution is not good at all, but in reality, it is such a good approximation that it works well with a relative large  even when only one term is used. A better approximate solution can be obtained if the damping is included in the derivation for the approximate solutions. However, it is much more algebraically challenging to include damping, and the added complexity results in minor improvement. You may ask what are the other two approximate solutions for? The other two solutions may be valid when a different set of initial conditions are used.

855 We find that 0 = 0. This is not surprising because the response must be in phase with the forcing for an undamped system.

Solution: Subharmonic resonance refers to the case when the system responds at the natural period instead of the forcing period. This occurs in the linear system as well as the nonlinear system when the forcing frequency is a multiple of the natural frequency.

863 Problems for Section 11.5— Mathieu Equation 20. Referring to Figure 11.14, describe physically the exchange of energy between the pendulum, the moving container, and the external force. Discuss in terms of energies and motion. Solution: Figure 11.14 shows a container with an interior pendulum. The container is forced, causing it to move and also resulting in motion of the pendulum. The exact governing equations 11.55 and 11.56 are coupled equations of motion. Under the assumption of harmonic support motion it is possible to combine the two governing equations into one where the “stiffness” term is time dependent and can have both positive and negative values, leading to the possibility of unstable motion in the case when the coefficient is negative. (See the next problem.)

21. Suppose in Equation 11.60 that  = 1,  = 1, and , representing the harmonic motion of the support, is variable. What limitations, if any, are there on stable motion? Solution: For the values  = 1,  = 1, if    2 cos , the term can be negative and the solutions have coefficients with positive exponential terms, with amplitudes growing without bounds.

(11.69) (11.70)

Considering equations 11.69 and 11.70, we see two coupled equations used to model the interaction between a simple structure and the vortices shed. The structure is a linear oscillator and the fluid is modeled as a van der Pol equation, which has a property that allows it to cycle between negative and positive damping, that is, between energy being added to the system and energy being removed form the system. It also has a limit cycle, and behaves in a way that it never comes to rest. This is a classical set of equations used for modeling vortex-induced oscillation.
