Problem 4.1

[edit | edit source]
On my honor, I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid in doing this assignment. 

Given

[edit | edit source]
Mode Shape for system. Mode slope increases and crosses into the positive region

Spring-damper-body arrangement as shown. Two separate forces applied to masses.
















γ γ





Find the eigenvector corresponding to the eigenvalue for the spring-mass-damper system on p.53-113. Plot and comment on this mode shape. Verify that the eigenvectors are orthogonal to each other

Solution

[edit | edit source]

Eigenvalues are found



We find the eigenvectors from







Set








Eigenvectors are orthogonal to each other:

EDU>> x= [-.8507;-.5257];
EDU>> y= [-.5257;.8507];
EDU>> transpose(y)*x
ans = 0
