Where the angles are measured in radians.

Response of a damped system in free vibration Equation of motion:

C The natural frequency is the same as the un-damped system.

c is the damping coefficient in the units of lbs per in/sec. The unitless damping ratio is:

Forced Response of Damped Systems


The mass oscillates with same frequency as the forcing function. There is a phase shift between the mass and the forcing function. The mass amplitude peaks near the Forcing frequency. The smaller the damping ratio, the larger the amplitude.

x F=F0Sin(t)

x (t ) = X sin(t +)

The amplitude is:


X = F0 / K (1 r 2 ) 2 + ( 2r ) 2

where r = n Plot the amplitude versus the frequency ratio using MathCad for different values of the damping ratio.

Forced Response of Damped Systems to Rotating Imbalance mass

M 4 F=F0Sin(t)

Motors are not perfectly balanced and create inertiallyinduced sinusoidal forcing functions.
F = F0 sin(t ) F0 = me2

The magnitude of this forcing function is the centrifugal force as indicated. In this relation me is the mass times eccentricity (mass imbalance) and is usually given in lb-in units which should be converted to slugs-in units. The system response is
em 2 r M X = (1 r 2 ) 2 + (2r ) 2

Force Transmissibility
Any machine with rotating masses transmits forces to its foundation. The more this transmitted force, the more shaking is felt through the floor which can be annoying or adversely affect other precision machines. The force transmitted to the ground is the summation of the spring force and the force through dashpot. Force Transmissibility is the ratio of the transmitted force to the induced force:
Tr = FT = F0 1 + (2r ) 2 (1 r 2 ) 2 + (2r ) 2

Draw the force transmissibility for small values of the damping ratio as a function of the frequency ratio. What should we do to reduce ground shake? What is the adverse consequence of that?

Mass Response to Base Vibration x C K y


A harmonic base vibration creates a harmonic system (mass) vibrations. Given the amplitude of the based motion and its frequency, we can find the amplitude of the mass its frequency of motion is the same as the base motion. The mass motion amplitude is:
X = Y 1 + (2r ) 2 (1 r 2 ) 2 + ( 2r ) 2

Where X is the amplitude of the mass and Y is the amplitude of the base motion, and r is the frequency ratio Force transmitted to the base in base vibration is:
Tr = FT =r2 kY 1 + ( 2r ) 2 (1 r 2 ) 2 + (2r ) 2

Seismic Effect of base Vibration


When a mass is shaken by the movement of ground (or its base), the stresses are proportional to the position of the mass with respect to the base as shown in the figure below:

Structure

Base or Foundation
The motion of interest is:
z (t ) = x (t ) y (t ) z (t ) = Z sin( t +)

The amplitude can be found given the amplitude of the shaking base as:
Z = Y r2 (1 r 2 ) 2 + (2r ) 2

Natural Frequency of Rotating Shafts

W1

W2

When a rotating shaft carries a number of weights, the first natural frequency of the shafts lateral vibration can be found by the following approximate formula:
f = 1 2 g (W1 1 + W2 2 + ... + Wn n W1 12 + W2 22 + ... + Wn n2

Where f is the frequency in Hz, g is the gravitational acceleration, Ws are the weights of the hanging element, and s are the static deflection under the weights only (exclude the deflection due to all external forces).
