Periodic loads can be expressed as a Fourier series, which is a sum of an infinite number of sine and cosine functions. Chapter 3.13 discusses the response to periodic forces, showing that the response will be periodic with the same frequency but possibly different amplitude and phase. The figure E3.8 likely illustrates an example of the response to a periodic force.
