Homework Assignment
AI Summary
This document presents a detailed solution to a mechanical engineering dynamics assignment. The solution begins with deriving equations of motion for a two-pendulum system using moment equilibrium equations at points P and Q. It then calculates natural frequencies and modal shapes, assuming simple harmonic motion, and expresses the equations in matrix form. The analysis proceeds to determine the linear vibration response using superposition of natural modes, considering initial conditions. The document also solves a multi-mass system problem using Newton's second law and Lagrange's equation of motion, deriving equations for each mass and expressing them in matrix form. The assignment covers various aspects of dynamics, including vibration analysis, equations of motion, and system modeling.

Equations of motion about P and Q
Assuming θ1 and θ2 are small, the moment equilibrium equations for the two moves about P and

Q.

At point P, the equation of motion will be;

j
¨θ 1 + mglsin θ1+ k(x1-x2) d =0
Taking account of horizontal displacement, we have

X1= dsin θ1

X2=d sin θ2

Note θ2 is the displacement for pendulum 2

Substituting j with ml
2, x1 with dsin θ1 and x2 with d sin θ2, the simplified equation will be:
Ml

Following the same process as point P, the simplified equation is shown below

Natural frequencies and modal shapes

Assuming motion to be S.H.M with

θi (t) = θi cos (ωt- ϕ) with i= 1,2,3 eqn 3

Where θ1 and θ2 are the amplitudes for pendulum 1 and 2 respectively, ϕ as the phase angle and

ω as the natural frequency.

With equations 1, 2 and 3 the equation of motion can be expressed in form of a matrix as shown

below

Taking into account non trivial solutions, the frequency equation will be

Following the same steps, the 2

Applying into our matrix equation the amplitude vector, the following equations will be

generated.

-ml
2 ω2- kd2x2 + (mgl+ kd2) x1 =0
-ml
2 ω2+ (mgl+ kd2) x2- kd2x1=0
Applying our natural frequencies and the amplitudes, we get the first and second amplitude ratios

respectively as follows.

Amplitude ratio one=

r 2 = k d2
ml2 ω 22+( mgl+kd2 )

Amplitude ratio two=

r 1 = k d2

Linear vibration response

Using linear superstition of natural modes, the free vibration response of this response is given

by

θ ( t )
= c1 θ1 ( t ) + c2 θ2 ( t )
By choosing c1=c2=1 with no loss in generality, the above nodal equations leads to

θ 1 ( t )=¿
θ11 cos (ω1t + ϕ1) + θ12 cos (ω2t + ϕ2) eqn a
θ 2 ( t )=¿
θ11 cos (ω1t + ϕ1) - θ12 cos (ω2t + ϕ2) eqn b
θ
11, ϕ1, θ12 and ϕ2 are to be determined from the initial
conditions with

θ1 (0) =a
˙θ 1(0) =0
θ2 (0) =0
˙θ 2(0) =0
These above conditions are given in the problem

a= θ
11 cos ϕ1 + θ12 cos ϕ2
0= θ
11 cos ϕ1 - θ12 cos ϕ2 eqn c
0= -ω
