Chapter 13, Problem 13.3P

A certain factory contains a heavy rotating machine that causes the factory floor to vibrate. We want to operate another piece of equipment nearby and we measure the amplitude of the floor's motion at that point to be 0.01 m. The mass of the equipment is 1500 kg and its support has a stiffness of k = 2x 104 N/m and a damping ratio of < = 0.04. Calculate the maximum force that will be transmitted to the equipment at resonance.

The figure below shows a simple model of a motor vehicle that can vibrate in the vertical direction while traveling over a rough road. The vehicle has a mass of 1200 kg. The suspension system has a spring constant of 400 kN/m and a damping ratio of ζ = 0.5. If the vehicle speed is 20 km/hr, determine the displacement amplitude of the vehicle. The road surface varies sinusoidally with an amplitude of  Y=0.05m and a wavelength of 6 m.   (please use the second images' conditions to answer the question above) (Also, please submit screenshot of matlab)
A heavy machine, weighing 3000 N, is supported on a resilient foundation. The static deflection of the foundation due to the weight of the machine is found to be 7.5 cm. It is observed that the machine vibrates with an amplitude of 1 cm when the base of the foundation is subjected to harmonic oscillation at the undamped natural frequency of the system with an amplitude of 0.25 cm. Find a. the damping constant of the foundation, b. the dynamic force amplitude on the base, and c. the amplitude of the displacement of the machine relative to the base.
: A spring-mass system is excited by a force F sin wt. At resonance the amplitude is measured to be 0.62cm. At 0.85 resonant frequency, the amplitude is measured to be 0.48cm. Determine the damping factor of the system.
