Dynamic Analysis

Part
Instructor: Dr. Ahmed El Labban
Date: 3rd – 28th Sept 2023
Sources of Dynamic Loads:

Machinery Operation: Vibrations and forces generated by moving parts, rotating


equipment, and other machinery components.

Wind and Aerodynamic Effects: Wind gusts and turbulence that exert varying
pressures on structures.

Earthquakes: Ground motion caused by seismic activity, resulting in dynamic


forces on structures.

Vehicle Loads: Loads from moving vehicles, trains, airplanes, and ships.

Impact Loads: Sudden impacts or collisions, such as those experienced during a


sudden stop or start.
Characteristics of Dynamic Loads:

Amplitude: The peak value of the load's magnitude during its oscillation.

Frequency: The number of oscillations or cycles per unit of time (often measured in Hertz, Hz).

Duration: The time span over which the dynamic load varies.

Direction: The angle at which the load is applied relative to the structure.
Natural Frequency: All physical structures have natural frequencies. These are the
frequencies at which the structure will tend to vibrate when subjected to certain external
forces. These frequencies are dependent on the way mass and stiffness are distributed
within the structure.

Resonance: Resonance is a phenomenon in which a dynamic force drives a structure to


vibrate at its natural frequency. When a structure is in resonance, a small force can produce
a large vibration response.

• When a dynamic force is applied to a physical object, it will vibrate. When a force is
applied at the object’s natural frequency, it goes into resonance, and a higher amplitude
vibration response is created.
A degree of freedom in a dynamic system is the number of independent variables that
define its configuration or state. For example, a particle in 3D space has 3 degrees of freedom: x,
y and z coordinates. A rigid body in 3D space has 6 degrees of freedom: 3 translational and 3
rotational.
