Spring Elements

A linear spring is a type of mechanical link with


negligible mass and damping
The spring force is proportional to the amount of
deformation
F = kx
The work done in deforming a spring is stored as strain
or potential energy in the spring
U = ½ kx2
Above equation shows a linear relationship, is it?
Spring Elements (cont’d.)

Actual spring are nonlinear, beyond some point

Now, what to do?


approximate non-linear behavior to a linear one; Linearization.
Spring Elements (cont’d.)

Linearization process

F + F = F ( x * + x )
using taylor series and ignoring higher order term s
dF
F + F = F ( x*) + ( x )
dx x*

 F = k x

Elastic elements like beams also behave like spring

Appendix B from Book


Deflection for different beams
Spring Elements (Example

Elastic elements like beams also behave like spring

1. Calculate Spring Stiffness K when a mass 10 kg cause 2 cm


extension in the spring
2. Calculate Tortional Spring Stiffness Kt when a mass 10 kg cause
15 degrees of deflection in the cantilever beam (length 1 m).

Mass Elements: Example Problems

A cam-follower mechanism is used to convert the rotary motion of a


shaft into the oscillating or reciprocating motion valve. The follower
system consist of a pushrod of mass mp, a rocker arm of mass mr, and
mass moment of inertia Jr, a valve of mass mv, and a valve spring of
negligible mass. Find the equivalent mass of this cam – follower
system by assuming the location as
Point A
Point C

2. In the figure find the equivalent mass of the rocker arm


assembly with respect to the x coordinate
Damping Elements

The mechanism by which the vibrational energy is


gradually converted into heat or sound
A damper is assume to have neither mass nor elasticity,
and exist only if there is relative velocity between the
two ends of the damper
Damping Elements: Types
Viscous Damping
Resistance offered by the fluid to the moving body that causes
the energy to be dissipated
Factors affecting damping;
Size
Shape
Viscosity
Frequency
Velocity
The damping force is proportional to the velocity of the
vibrating body
Typical example;
Fluid film between sliding surfaces
Fluid around a piston in a cylinder
Fluid flow through an orifice
Fluid film around a journal in a bearing
Damping Elements: Types
Coulomb / Dry Friction Damping
Constant in magnitude but opposite in direction of motion to the
vibrating body
Caused by friction between rubbing surfaces (Dry/Insufficient
Lubrication
Material or Solid or Hysteretic Damping
Energy is dissipated by the material when deform. This is due to friction
between the internal planes, which slip or slide
