1. A precision grinding machine Fig. is supported on an isolator that has a stiffness of 1


MN/m and a viscous damping constant of 1 kN-s/m. The floor on which the machine
is mounted is subjected to a harmonic disturbance due to the operation of an unbalanced
engine in the vicinity of the grinding machine. Find the maximum acceptable
displacement amplitude of the floor if the resulting amplitude of vibration of the
grinding wheel is to be restricted to 10-6 m. Assume that the grinding machine and the
wheel are a rigid body of weight 5000 N.

2. An air compressor of mass 100 kg is mounted on an elastic foundation. It has been


observed that, when a harmonic force of amplitude 100 N is applied to the compressor,
the maximum steady-state displacement of 5 mm occurred at a frequency of 300 rpm.
Determine the equivalent stiffness and damping constant of the foundation.
3. Find the frequency ratio 𝑟 = 𝜔/𝜔0 at which the amplitude of a single-degree-of-
freedom damped system attains the maximum value. Also find the value of the
maximum amplitude.
4. A spring-mass-damper system is subjected to a harmonic force. The amplitude is found
to be 20 mm at resonance and 10 mm at a frequency 0.75 times the resonant frequency.
Find the damping ratio of the system.
5. A video camera, of mass 2.0 kg, is mounted on the top of a bank building for
surveillance. The video camera is fixed at one end of a tubular aluminum rod whose
other end is fixed to the building as shown in Fig. The wind-induced force acting on
the video camera, f(t), is found to be harmonic with 𝑓(𝑡) = 25𝑐𝑜𝑠75.3984𝑡 N.
Determine the cross-sectional dimensions of the aluminum tube if the maximum
amplitude of vibration of the video camera is to be limited to 0.005 m.
6. It is required to design an electromechanical system to achieve a natural frequency of
1000 Hz and a Q factor of 1200. Determine the damping factor and the bandwidth of
the system.
7. The peak amplitude of a single-degree-of-freedom system, under a harmonic excitation,
is observed to be 0.2 in. If the undamped natural frequency of the system is 5 Hz, and
the static deflection of the mass under the maximum force is 0.1 in., (a) estimate the
damping ratio of the system, and (b) find the frequencies corresponding to the
amplitudes at half power.

8. The landing gear of an airplane can be idealized as the spring-mass-damper system


shown in Fig. If the runway surface is described 𝑦(𝑡) = 𝑦0 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜔𝑡, determine the values
of k and c that limit the amplitude of vibration of the airplane (x) to 0.1 m. Assume m

For a precision grinding machine on an isolator with a stiffness of 1 MN/m and a damping constant of 1 kN-s/m, the maximum acceptable displacement amplitude of the floor must be calculated to ensure the grinding wheel's vibration amplitude is restricted to 10⁻⁶ m. Considering the machine and wheel as a rigid body of weight 5000 N, the equation to determine the maximum floor displacement involves the isolation system's performance against harmonic disturbances. Utilizing vibration isolation equations, the effective static displacement and dynamic parameters give insights into achieving the restriction of 10⁻⁶ m for the grinding wheel .

To limit the vibration amplitude of a 2 kg surveillance camera mounted on a tubular aluminum rod to 0.005 meters under a wind force expressed as 𝑓(𝑡) = 25cos75.3984𝑡 N, we calculate using the relationship between the natural frequencies, the harmonic excitation frequencies, and structural stiffness. By considering the modulus of elasticity and section modulus, the cross-sectional dimensions are determined to ensure compliance with the desired vibrational constraints .

The frequency ratio 𝑟 at which a single-degree-of-freedom damped system attains its maximum amplitude can be determined through the relationship 𝑟 = 𝜔/𝜔₀. Using the conditions for resonance in damped systems, it occurs when the frequency of excitation is approximately equal to the damped natural frequency modified by the damping ratio factor. Further analysis gives the corresponding value of the maximum amplitude for the system under specified damping conditions .

For an airplane landing gear system modeling a spring-mass-damper system with parameters m = 2000kg, 𝑦₀ = 0.2m, and 𝜔 =157.08 rad/s, to restrict vibrational amplitude (x) to 0.1 m on a surface described by 𝑦(𝑡) = 𝑦0𝑓(𝑡), the right values of k and c are crucial. Employing differential equations of motion and Rossiter resonant method, calculate the dynamic response and solve for k and c that meet the amplitude constraint .

The damping ratio of a spring-mass-damper system can be derived from amplitude measurements at resonance and another given frequency. If the amplitude is 20 mm at resonance and 10 mm at a frequency 0.75 times the resonant frequency, the damping ratio can be computed using the formula relating amplitudes at two frequencies to the damping ratio, often involving solving the logarithmic decrement or utilizing complex amplitude response functions .

An electromechanical system with a natural frequency of 1000 Hz and a Q factor of 1200 requires specific damping characteristics. The damping factor, related inversely to the Q factor, can be calculated using the relation damping factor = 1/(2*Q). The bandwidth is defined by the natural frequency divided by the Q factor, thereby providing clarity on frequency responsiveness while adhering to the given system goals .

To estimate the damping ratio of a system based on half-power frequencies, consider a system with a peak amplitude of 0.2 in and an undamped natural frequency of 5 Hz. The damping ratio is derived from static deflection data and peak amplitude occurrences. Frequencies corresponding to amplitudes at half power can be found using the half-power bandwidth method, which involves calculating frequency deviation from natural due to damping .

Given an air compressor of mass 100 kg, experiencing a maximum steady-state displacement of 5 mm under a harmonic force with amplitude 100 N at 300 rpm, the equivalent stiffness and damping constant can be found using the equations of motion for damped harmonic systems. By computing the displacement, frequency, and force relationship, and using the formula for the resonant frequency, equivalent stiffness and damping properties quantify the foundation's dynamic response under loading .
