EXPERIMENT OF SIMPLE VIBRATION. PURPOSE The purpose of the experimet is to show free vibratio ad damped vibratio o a system havig oe degree of freedom ad to ivestigate the relatioship betwee the basic vibratio parameters.. THEORY.. Free Vibratios Cosider a system icludig a body of mass m movig alog oly the vertical directio, which is supported by a sprig of stiffess coefficiet k ad a egligible mass (Figure a). Figure. A system havig oe degree of freedom Let the mass m be give a dowward displacemet from the equilibrium positio ad the released. At some time t, the mass will be at a distace x from the equilibrium positio. The et force o the mass is the sprig force (-kx) which will ted to restore it to its equilibrium positio.

.. Damped Vibratios Cosider a system icludig a body of mass m hug by a sprig of stiffess coefficiet k ad egligible mass. The mass is also attached by a perforated pisto to a oilcylider whose resistace is proportioal to the velocity of the mass (Figure 3a). Figure 3. Oil-cylider with a perforated pisto. Let the mass m be give a dowward displacemet from the equilibrium positio ad the released. To determie the equatio of motio, a free body diagram of the mass at a distace x from the equilibrium positio at some time t is show i figure 3b. Net forces o the mass are the dampig force (-Cdx/dt) which will ted to restore its equilibrium positio, the sprig force ad the iertia force. C is the dampig coefficiet of the oil.

Solutio of the equatio of motio is depedet o the dampig ratio. If r>, a operiodic movemet which approaches the equilibrium positio is obtaied (Figure 4). r> x( t) ( r r ) t ( r r ) t Ae Be () A ad B are costats which are depedet o the iitial coditios of motio. If r=, the motio correspodig to the critical dampig ratio is approachig the equilibrium positio with time. r= x r t ( t) ( A Bt) e () If r<, a motio which has a period T ad a decreasig amplitude with time t is obtaied. r< x t e r t ( ) ( Acos r t Bsi r t (3) Figure 4. The motio of damped free vibratio of sprig-mass system The followig relatio is foud betwee two cosecutive wave widths, as ca be see from equatio 3. x rt xe (4) The logarithmic decremet is defied as follows to calculate the dampig ratio. x log (5a) e x where x: th. maximum amplitude durig vibratio; x+: is the ext maximum. 4
If we cosider the drop i amplitude i successive cycles the the log decremet is give by x log (5b) 0 e x where x0: vibratio amplitude of iitial cycle; x: vibratio amplitude of. cycle. Figure5. Damped vibratios with dampig ratio less tha. r t (6) Vibratio period T is T d r where ωd is the damped atural frequecy. Note that time iterval betwee two cosecutive peaks i the graphic is equal to period, T. Because of this, time t betwee x ad x cycles must be equal to period T. So t=t. The dampig ratio is calculated as follows (7) r r t (8) r or / r (9) ( / ) for small dampig we have r log x e x r. So the dampig ratio, (0) 5
