Lecture # 13

The document discusses mechanical vibration and free vibration with damping. It provides an example to calculate the natural frequency of vibration of a firetruck cockpit attached to a telescoping boom. It then covers the concept of free vibration with viscous damping, defining terms like the characteristic equation, critical damping constant, and damping ratio. Finally, it outlines three cases of free vibration damped systems based on the damping ratio.

Natural Frequency of Cockpit of a Firetruck

• The cockpit of a firetruck is


located at the end of a
telescoping boom, as shown
in Fig. 2.12(a). The cockpit,
along with the fireman,
weighs 2000 N. Find the
cockpit s natural frequency of
vibration in the vertical
direction.
Data:
Young s modulus of the material=E= 2.1 x 1011 n/m2
Length=l1=l2=l3= 3m
Cross Sectional Area=A1= 20cm2 , A2=10cm2, A3= 5cm2
Weight=w= 2000N

Solution :

To determine the system’s natural frequency of vibration, we find the equivalent stiffness
of the boom in the vertical direction and use a single-degree-of-freedom idealization. For
this we assume that the mass of the telescoping boom is negligible and the telescoping
boom can deform only in the axial direction (with no bending). Since the force induced at
any cross section is equal to the axial load applied at the end of the boom, as shown in
Fig. 2.12(b),
The axial stiffness of the boom is given by

Where denotes the axial stiffness of the ith segment of the boom:
The stiffness of the telescoping boom in the vertical
direction, k, can be determined as:

Critical Damping Constant

• The critical damping is defined as the value of the damping


constant c for which the radical in Eq. (2.62) becomes zero:

Radical
Taking under root of both sides
Damping Ratio

• For any damped system, the


damping ratio is defined as the
ratio of the damping constant to
the critical damping constant:
Thus the solution, Eq. (2.64), can be written as
Free Vibration damped System

• It can be seen that the case leads to the undamped vibrations


discussed in Section 2.2. Hence we assume that and consider the
following three cases.
Free Vibration
