pemerhatian.
Frekuensi
tabii
yang
diperoleh
daripada
eksperimen
dibandingkan dengan frekuensi tabii yang dikira berdasarkan teori sistem jisim
tergumpal dan teori sistem jisim teragih. Kesemua data telah diterjemahkan secara
grafik dan keputusan-keputusannya telah dibincangkan. Daripada kajian ini, didapati
bahawa nisbah redaman akan berkurang apabila amplitud awal meningkat. Walaupun
amplitud yang lebih besar akan mengurangkan redaman, jumlah pengurangan itu
bergantung kepada ketebalan rasuk dan tiang. Pengurangan nisbah redaman yang
disebabkan oleh peningkatan amplitud awal adalah lebih besar untuk rasuk dan tiang
yang nipis, berbanding yang lebih tebal. Boleh juga disimpulkan bahawa ketebalan
tiang memberi kesan yang lebih jelas kepada nilai redaman. Frekuensi tabii pula
bergantung kepada jisim keseluruhan struktur kerangka rasuk, iaitu kedua-dua jisim
rasuk dan tiangnya. Semua data yang diperoleh adalah untuk kerangka portal
disokong pin sahaja, dan dijangkakan nilai nisbah redaman adalah lebih rendah untuk
kerangka portal berpenghujung tegar.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1
Background of Study

system excited at resonance does not grow without limit. Estimation of damping in
structural systems poses a most difficult problem in structural dynamics. Unlike the
mass and stiffness characteristics of a structural system, damping does not relate to a
unique physical phenomenon. Damping is often required and it is difficult to
engineer it unless external damping systems are introduced in the structural system.
1.2
Problem Statement
Damping is the removal of energy from a vibratory system. The energy lost is
either transmitted away from the system by some mechanism of radiation or
dissipated within the system. Damping also plays a crucial role in fixing the
borderline between stability and instability in many dynamical systems. The damping
capacity is defined as the ratio of the energy dissipated in one cycle of oscillation to
the maximum amount of energy accumulated in the structure in that cycle. When a
system is starting to vibrate in a cyclic motion, it will tend to displace at certain
amplitude in either sides before being damped due to dissipation of energy as
mentioned before.

1.3
Research Objectives
(ii) To investigate how the beam and column thicknesses of portal frame
affecting the damping ratio.
(iii)To observe the behavior of natural frequency with different beam and column
thicknesses and compare the experimental natural frequency with calculated
natural frequency using lumped mass system and distributed mass system
theory.
(iv) To compare the damped frequency with the natural frequency of portal frame.
1.4
Significance of study
This research will study on the relationship between damping and amplitude
of displacement of pinned portal frame. The results from this research should verify
all the previous study of dynamic behavior of structures. It may lead to new findings
regarding the damping of portal frames. Any data or results from this study may be
useful for engineers in solving problems regarding dynamic responses of portal
frame or other structures.

(1976), The increasing size and complexity of new structural forces in engineering
have made it necessary for designers to be aware of their dynamic behavior.

2.3.1
For a linear system the relationship between the lateral force fS and resulting
deformation u is linear as in Figure 2.3.1, the equation is given by

=
(2.3.1)
Where k is the lateral stiffness of the system and the unit is (kN/m)
(a)
(b)
Figure 2.3.1
Consider a linear viscous damper subjected to a force fD along the single degree of
freedom u as in Figure 2.3.2a. The internal force in the damper is equal and opposite
to the external force fD (Figure 2.3.2b). As shown in Figure 2.3.2c, the damping force
fD is related to the velocity across the linear viscous damper by
=
where the constant c is the viscous damping coefficient.

Figure 2.3.2
According to the Newtons Second Law of Motion, the force acting on the
mass at some instant of time is shown in Figure 2.3.3b. These include the external
force p(t), the elastic (or inelastic) resisting force fS (Figure 2.3.1), and the damping
9
resisting force fD (Figure 2.3.2). The external force is taken to be positive in the
direction of the x-axis, and the displacement u(t), velocity (t), and acceleration (t)
are also positive in the direction of the x-axis.

(c)
Figure 2.3.3
The elastic and damping forces are shown acting in the opposite direction
because they are internal forces that resist the deformation and velocity, respectively.

The resultant force along the x-axis is p fS fD and Newtons second law of
motion gives
= or + + = ()
(2.3.3)
(2.3.4)
Equation 2.3.4 is the equation of motion that will be used in free vibration system
theory.
2.3.2
(2.3.5)
Free vibration is initiated by disturbing the system from its static equilibrium
position by imparting the mass some displacement u(0) and velocity 0 at time
zero, defined as the instant the motion is initiated:
u = u(0)
= (0)
