Conservative system: equation of motion What about the effect of gravity? The displacement x is defined with respect to the equilibrium position of the mass subjected to gravity. The effect of gravity should therefore not be taken into account in the equation of motion of the system. 15 Equation of motion: general solution Characteristic equation: In the absence of external excitation force, the motion is oscillatory. The natural angular frequency n is defined by the values of k and m The motion is initialized by imposing initial conditions on the displacement and the velocity 16 8
