Structural Dynamics Problems 1

The document describes two structural dynamics problems involving equations of motion for simple systems. Problem 1 involves deriving the equation of motion for a single-degree-of-freedom system with a mass, spring, and damper. Problem 2 involves deriving the equation of motion for a two-mass rigid bar system excited by a spring-mounted support with given motion, in terms of the vertical displacement of one mass.
