3 d) Figure 1. Comparison of mountain biker oscillations. e) We see that both Hotdogger and Smallfry undergo underdamped oscillations. Hotdogger s max amplitude of oscillation is larger this is to be expected since Hotdogger has a larger mass. Also, we see the longer period (lower angular) frequency of oscillation inherent with a larger mass (keeping spring and damping the same for both riders). Smallfry s oscillations decay faster. This makes sense each oscillation saps energy from the system; that s what the damper does. Smallfry undergoes more oscillations per second, so the energy is dissipated faster overall. f) The oscillations above are a bit much, but not too dramatic oscillations are basically complete within about 0.5 s. Perhaps the riders could increase their damping factor a bit if they want cushion, but less oscillation. This increases the damping factor (zeta), so they ll get closer to critically damped. Perhaps increase the damping constant such that zeta becomes ~ This is a gut feel recommendation having saddled up quite a bit myself (with ZERO experience hucking off crazy cliffs like that). %% Real Shock to the System: Mtn Biker Problem: % Define physical parameters m_sf = 50; %kg, for Smallfry m_hd = 100; %kg, for Hotdogger m_bike = 10; %kg, mass of bike % total mass for small fry. % could easily update this for hotdogger, as we do below m = m_sf + m_bike;
