Lecture D33 : Forced Vibration
Spring Force Fs = ?kx, k> 0
Dashpot Fd = ?c˙x, c> 0
Forcing Fext =F0sinωt

Undamped Forced Vibration
¨x+ω2nx= F0m sinωt (1)
General Solution
x(t) = xc(t)+xp(t)
? xc(t) is general solution of
¨x+ω2nx = 0
...have already seen
? xp(t) is any solution of (1)
Try xp(t) = Xsinωt ?

Vibration Isolation
How much of the applied force is transmitted
to the wall?
Transmissibility = |Transmitted force ||Applied Force|
Applied Force
Fext = F0sinωt
Transmitted Force (spring + dashpot)

Transmissibility
For ω/ωn > √2 damping increases transmissi-
bility !!
For ω/ωn <√2 having a spring increases trans-
missibility !!
