1.Force Balance Method

Newtonian principle of linear momentum

𝐹 − 𝑝 = 0 (3.1a)

𝐹 : the net external force vector acting on the system

𝑝 : the absolute linear momentum of the considered system

For a system of constant mass 𝑚 whose center of mass is

moving with absolute acceleration 𝑎, the rate of change of

linear momentum 𝑝 = 𝑚 𝑎

𝐹 − 𝑚 𝑎 = 0 (3.1b)

−𝑚 𝑎 : inertial force

⟹The sum of the external forces and inertial forces acting on

the system is zero; that is, the system is in equilibrium

under the action of external and inertial forces

Horizontal Vibrations of a Spring-Mass-Damper System

Consider a mass moving in a direction normal

to the direction of gravity

• It is assumed that the mass moves without

friction

• The unstretched length of the spring is 𝐿, and

a fixed point 𝑂 is located at the unstretched

position of the spring

• The spring does not undergo any static

deflection and carrying out a force balance

along the 𝑖 direction

The wind flow across civil structures typically generates a

excitation force 𝑓(𝑡) on the structure that consists of a steady-

state part and a fluctuating part

𝑓 𝑡 = 𝑓𝑠𝑠 + 𝑓𝑑(𝑡)

𝑓𝑠𝑠 : the time-independent steady-state force

𝑥0 = 0 ⟹ 𝑚𝑑2 𝑥

𝑑𝑡2 + 𝑘 𝑥(𝑡) = 0

𝑥0 = −1 ⟹ 𝑚𝑑2 𝑥

- Ex.3.7 Effect of Mass on the Damping Factor

A system is initially designed to be critically damped - that is,

with a damping factor of 𝜉 = 1. Due to a design change, the

mass of the system is increased 20% - that is, from 𝑚 to 1.2𝑚.

Will the system still be critically damped if the stiffness and the

damping coefficient of the system are kept the same?

§4.Governing Equations for Different Type of Damping

The governing equations of motion for systems with different

types of damping are obtained by replacing the term

corresponding to the force due to viscous damping with the force

due to either the fluid, structural, or dry friction type damping

Coulomb or Dry Friction Damping

Using Eq. (2.52) and Eq. (3.8), the governing equation of motion

takes the form

§6.Lagrange’s Equations

The governing equation of motion

𝑚 𝑥 + 𝑘2 +𝑇1

𝐿𝑥 = 0

The natural frequency

𝜔𝑛 = 𝑘𝑒/𝑚𝑒 = 𝑘2 + 𝑇1/𝐿 /𝑚

If the spring of constant 𝑘1 is compressed instead of being in

tension, then we can replace 𝑇1 by −𝑇1 , and the natural

frequency

𝜔𝑛 = 𝑘𝑒/𝑚𝑒 = 𝑘2 − 𝑇1/𝐿 /𝑚

The natural frequency 𝜔𝑛 can be made very low by adjusting

the compression of the spring with stiffness 𝑘1. At the same

time, the spring with stiffness 𝑘2 can be made stiff enough so

that the static displacement of the system is not excessive
