Where F0 is the amplitude, ω the excitation frequency and φ the phase angle.
The solution;
n = k m
where
As the excitation is harmonic, the particular solution is also harmonic
with the same frequency:
Response of an Undamped System under Harmonic Force
We will have
Case 1:
When 0<ω/ωn < 1 the
denominator of the steady
state amplitude is positive and
the amplification factor
increases as ω approaches the
natural frequency
The harmonic response is,
Response of an Undamped System under Harmonic Force
Case 2:
When ω/ωn > 1 the denominator of the
steady state amplitude is negative an the
amplification factor is redefined as:
Case 3:
When ω/ωn = 1 the
denominator of the steady –
state amplitude is zero an the
response becomes infinitely
large. This condition when ω =
ωn is known as resonance.
Resonance: the forcing
frequency is equal to the natural
frequency
The harmonic response is,
