CE - 616 Structural Dynamics: Homework No. 4

This 3 sentence summary provides the key details from the document: The document outlines homework assignment number 4 from the Structural Dynamics course at IIT Bombay for the Autumn 2016-2017 semester, which asks students to express a periodic loading function as a Fourier series and determine the response of a damped single degree of freedom structure to the loading for the first 10 terms using given parameters. Students are instructed to hand write their solutions, scan them with any computer programs or graphs, and submit the combined file by the due date of August 27, 2016.
