Damping Effects in Structural Dynamics

1) The document is a homework assignment that analyzes the free vibration of a damped structural system with varying damping ratios. 2) It provides the system properties and initial conditions, then derives and plots the response for damping ratios of 0, 0.05, 0.5, 1, and 1.5. 3) For each damping ratio, it determines the appropriate vibration equation and plots the response, then combines all five responses on a single graph.

Problem 01:
A damped structural system with k=25 kip/ft and mass m=1 k.s2/ft is subjected to an initial
displacement u0 = 1 ft and initial velocity v0 = 4 ft/sec.
Plot the free vibration for the following damping ratio.
a. =0.00
b. =0.05
c. =0.50
d. =1.00
e. =1.50
Solution:
Given: k = 25 k/ft,

m = 1 k.s2/ft

Natural circular frequency,

n = = = 5 rad/s

25

u0 = 1 ft

v0 = 4 ft/s

a. for =0.00 the system is undamped & we know equation of motion for undamped SDOF
v
system is u(t) = u0 cos(n t) + 0 sin(n t) (i)
n

u(t) = 1 cos(5t) + sin(5t)

From eq(i), we get,

u(t) = cos(5t) + 0.8 sin(5t)

b. for =0.05 the system is under damped


Damped circular frequency,

D =n 1 2 =51 0.052 = 4.993 rad/s

We know equation of motion for under damped SDOF system is


u(t) = en t u0 cos(D t) +
From eq(ii), we get,

u 0 n +v 0

u(t) = e0.25t [cos(4.993t) + 0.851 sin(4.993t)]

d. for =1.0 the system is critically damped


We know equation of motion for critically damped SDOF system is,
u(t) = u0 en t + (0 + 0 ) n t (iii)
From eq(iii), we get,
u(t) = 1e5t + (4 + 1 5) 5t

u(t) = e5t + 9 5t
