Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 6E

Consider the spring-rigid body system described in problem 3. What force F 2 should be applied on body 2 in order to keep it from moving? How will this affect the support reactions?

Hint: Impose the boundary condition u 2 = 0 in the finite element model and solve for displacements u 3 and u 4 . Then, the force F 2 will be the reaction at node 2.

(PSD) A precision milling machine, weighing 4500 N, is supported on a rubber mount. The force-deflection relationship of the rubber mount is given by F = 270x + 0.25(x^3). Determine the equivalent linearized spring constant of the rubber mount at its static equilibrium position.
Dynamics of rigid bodies Problem 5
PROBLEMFor the plane truss given below, using the Matrix Stiffness Analysis method, determine;• Determine displacements of the joints• Determine the forces in the truss members• Determine the support reactionsNote that the whole system has 4 nodes and hence 8 degrees of freedom. These degrees of freedomsare shown (in their positive directions) on the right hand side of the problem picture (1 to 8). So, thesystem stiffness matrix, K, will be 8x8 in size.Force and displacement units should be consistent (mm’s and N’s for example)

  • Figure below shows a mass-spring model of the type used to design packaging systems and vehicle suspensions, for example. The springs exert a force that is proportional to their compression, and the proportionality constant is the spring constant k. The two side springs provide additional resistance if the weight W is too heavy for the center spring. When the weight W is gently placed, it moves through a distance x before coming to rest. From statics, the weight force must balance the spring forces at this new position. (if x=d) These relations can be used to generate the plot of x versus W. (a) The following values are given: k1=104 N/m; k2 = 1.5 *104 N/m; d =0.1 m. Create a function that computes the distance x, using the input parameter W; Then, test your function for the following two cases, using the values: W=500 N W=2000 N. (b) Create another script and use your function to plot x versus W for 0 < W < 3000 N for the values of k1, k2, and d given in part a.
