The document discusses the role of engineering and mathematics in developing new technologies through continuous innovation. It notes how engineering has driven globalization by creating technologies like artificial intelligence, automatic cars, and machines that have modernized life. Mathematics is an integral part of engineering, with engineers using mathematical concepts and principles to interpret problems and develop technological solutions. The document then focuses on analyzing vibrating systems, noting how the theory of mechanical vibrations is used to calculate oscillations in engineering structures and isolate or reduce unwanted vibrations. It provides context on how predicting how systems respond to external forces like wind, earthquakes, or ground motion is important. The goal of vibration analysis is to avoid resonant catastrophes where continuous energy input causes destruction.

Engineering has been the gear for continues evolution, most especially in the area of technology.

Technology that has been the driving force of globalization. As the decade goes by, engineers had
been continually innovatging, and or creating new technology that helps humanity experience a more
easy and convinient life. We cannot deny the fact how mdernized our world has now turned out to
be. Artificial intelligence, automatic cars, machines, and other advanced technologies, these are all
products of continues engineering, a product of engineering by interpreting mathematics into the
development of these machines /technology.

Talking about engineering mathermatics, what we want to really imply towards this project, is to view
it as a subject for engineering programs, to view it as something that co-exist with engineering in its
entirerty, usually taught by mathematicians, as well as mathematics as an integrated and or
correlated part of engineering sciences, where it pioneers specific practices with mathematics being
more than the idea of it just being a languange usedin engineering.

One of the applications of engineering in the real wrold, is through the analysis and or assessment
data shown in vibrating systems. The first perspective we would like to tackle is to investigate
mathematics used bu engineers at the workplace.

The concept of vibration, which is the oscillatory phenomena that occrus when a solid is subjected to
force, is relatively new. In reality, it wasn’t until the industrial revolution that mechanical vibration
became a reality. Bu the second part of the eighteenth century, mechanical oscillatory phenomena,
such as those caused by moving trains and operating machinery, had only just began to be
recognized. The environment had been serne and silent up until that point, but the extensive usage of
new machinery and systems suddenly brought new, strong noises and sensations. The goal and
primary issues of the applied theory of mechanical vibrations are determined by various methods of
calculating the estimated oscillations of engineering structures, techniques for lowering vibrations to
the level allowed, or their complete isolation.

In engineering practice, predicting how a building or mechanical sustem will react to an external force
is our primary focus. For instance, it may be necessary to forecast how a bridge or a tall building
would react to wind loads, earthquakes, or ground motion. Resonant catastrophe, as used in
mechanics and costructions, is the term for when generated vibrations at a system’s oscillation-
causing resonant frequency cause a building or technical mechanism to be destroyed. Periodic
excitation effeciently transports and stores vibrational energy in the system. The system sways more
and more as a result of this continuous addition of energy, up until its load is reached. Bridge
oscillations on a irregular basis were a frequent cause of these catastrophes. Periodic fluctuations are
movements of the body that periodically return to their equillibrium position. Vibration is the term
used to describe any oscillatory motion of a mechanical system in relation to its equillibrium position.

Considering the vibrating system modeled by y ' ' +cy '+ ky=δ (t), y (0)=¿ y '( 0)=¿ ¿

By using linearity, we can get the laplace transform of both sides. Laplace transform of derivatives and
laplace transform of delta duntion, placing and or integrating Y = L (y)):

L( y ' ' ) + cL( y ' ) + kL(y) = L (δ (t)¿, y(0) = 1, y’(0) = 1

2
(s L( y)− sy (0) − y ' (0))+ c (sL ( y)− y ( 0))+kL( y )=1

s2 Y + csY + kY =1+(c +s)+1, therefore we can make an equation from this such as this
one

c + s+2
Y= 2
s + cs+ k
Think about a system that vibrates with an embedded weight (Fg) of a
body that weighs 13 N and is damped at c = 3 m Wo. The body extends
1.24 meters. What would the body's motion look like if the body was
originally lowered by 17 m and given a zero initial velocity?
Fg= 13N
c= 3m W0
D= 1.24m
y(0)= 17m
y’(0)= 0

Initial values:
