MAE 340 – Vibrations Vibration •

Vibration is the study of:

the repetitive motion of objects relative to a stationary^ frame of reference or nominal position

(e.g., the equilibrium
position)

Vibration is an important factor in many designs:

Products that break if they vibrate too much: 

Buildings and bridges

 

MAE 340 – Vibrations Free vs. Forced Vibration

Free Vibration vs. Forced Vibration

Free Vibration

All

interfaces

of the body with the

environment

are static

Forced Vibration

At least one point of the

body

is

subjected to periodic forces

or

displacements.

MAE 340 – Vibrations SDOF vs. MDOF Systems

In a

Single-Degree-of-Freedom ( SDOF )

System we study the motion of a rigid bodyin

one direction

The motion may be rectilinear or rotational . Image from D Inman, Engineering Vibration .

Discrete vs. Continuous Systems

A discrete system has rigid

(lumped)

masses connected by massless, flexiblemembers (e.g., massless springs and dampers) MAE 340 – Vibrations k m x c k^ c k^ c

Discrete vs. Continuous Systems

A continuous system has flexible members whose distributed mass issignificant to the vibrations MAE 340 – Vibrations Image from Dlubal Software GmbH Image from www.jeffkemp.com

How do we find A and φ ?

MAE 340 – Vibrations Working with Vibration Amplitudes

If we have any two of: 

Natural frequency =



Displacement amplitude =



Velocity amplitude =



Acceleration amplitude =

then we can get the other two.
