STEPS:


Draw the free body diagram.


Write the modeling equation from the free body diagram


Solve the equations for the highest derivative of the output.


Draw a block diagram to represent this equation.


Draw the corresponding Simulink diagram.


Use Step block to provide the input fa(t).


In the Step block, set the initial and final values and the time at which the step occurs.


Use the “To Workspace” blocks for t, fa(t), x, and v in order to allow MATLAB to plot the
desired responses. Set the save format to array in block parameters.


Select the duration of the simulation to be 10 seconds from the Simulation >
Parameters entry on the toolbar


The block diagram will be like below

Saving these values in workspace

Fa = 300; % N
M = 750; %kg
K = 15; %N/m
B = 30; % Ns/m

RESULTS:
VELOCITY GRAPH:

DISPLACEMENT GRAPH:

COMBINED GRAPH:

3
When the value of M=1750:

Comments: when the value of M is increased from 750 to 1750 kg the displacement curve
showing the variance with respect to velocity.

4
When value of K=150:

Comment: by increasing the value of K to 150 both graph show the same path.

5
When value of B=300:

Comments: by increasing the friction coefficient it can be seen that the direct effect goes on
the displacement curve.
