Free Vibration Analysis of Multi-Degree Systems

The document outlines various problems related to the free-vibration response, natural frequencies, and forced response of multi-degree-of-freedom systems using modal analysis and Lagrange's method. It includes specific parameters for different systems, such as mass, stiffness, and initial conditions, and requires the derivation of equations of motion and analysis of responses. Each problem focuses on a different aspect of dynamic systems in mechanical engineering.

= ẋ2(0)= = 0.

2. Find the free vibration response of the two-degree-of-freedom system shown in Figure
using modal analysis for the following data: m1 = 2 kg, m2 = 5 kg, k1 = 10N/m, k2 = 20N/m,
k3 = 5N/m, x1(0) = 0.1 m, x2(0) = 0, ẋ1(0) = 0, and ẋ2(0) = 5 m/s.

3. Find the natural frequencies of the system shown in the next figure, with m1 = m, m2 = 2m,
k1 = k and k2 = 2k. If m = 20 kg and k = 1000 N/m, Determine the amplitude ratio of the
systems

4. Determine the natural frequencies and mode shapes a two degree of freedom system shown
in Figure. Given k = 1000 N/m, r = 10 cm, Ip = 1 kgms and m = 10 kg. (Use Lagrange’s
method)
5. Find the forced response of the viscously damped two-degree-of freedom system shown in
Figure. using modal analysis for the following data: m1 = 2 kg, m2 = 5 kg, k1 = 10 N/m, k2
= 20 N/m, k3 = 5 N/m, c1 = 2 N.s/m, c2 = 3 N.s/m, c3 = 1.0 N. s/m, f1(t) = 0, f2(t) = 5 N, and
t ≥ 0. Assume the initial conditions to be zero.

6. A three degree-of-freedom model of an automobile suspension system and passenger


is illustrated in Figure. The bar of mass m has its mass center at G, which is a distance
a from the front springs. The attached mass-spring models a seat with a passenger
strapped inside. The wheels provide a displacement of y1(t) and y2(t), as illustrated.
a) Using x1, θ, and x2 as generalized coordinates, derive the equations of motion for
the system. Assume small θ.
b) Use Lagrange’s equations to derive the differential equations governing the motion
of the system
