Solution of Free Undamped Vibration For A SDOF System Support Movement of Structures

1) The document discusses free undamped and damped vibrations of a single degree of freedom (SDOF) system. Key definitions include mass (M), stiffness (K), natural frequency (w), displacement (x), velocity (x'), and acceleration (x''). 2) For an undamped system, the displacement as a function of time is a sinusoid with amplitude proportional to the initial displacement and velocity. 3) For a damped system, the response depends on the damping ratio (ξ). If ξ is less than 1, the system is underdamped and the response consists of decaying sinusoids. If ξ equals 1, the system is critically damped and
