INTRODUCTION
When a mechanical system undergoes free vibrations, an initial force (causing some
displacement) is impressed upon the system, and the system is allowed to vibrate under the
influence of inherent elastic properties. The system however, comes to rest, depending upon
the amount of damping in the system.
In engineering situations, there are instances where in an external energy source
causes vibrations continuously acting on the system. Then the system is said to undergo
forced vibrations, as it vibrates due to the influence of external energy source. The external
energy source may be an externally impressed force or displacement excitation impressed
upon the system. The excitation may be periodic, impulsive or random in nature. Periodic
excitations may be harmonic or non harmonic but periodic. The amplitude of vibrations
remains almost constant. Machine tools, internal combustion engines, air compressors, etc
are few examples that undergo forced vibration.

Let the force acts vertically upwards as shown in FBD. Then the Governing Differential
Equation (GDE) can be written as
mx = - Kx - C x + F
The particular integral or steady state response is a steady state oscillation of the same
frequency ω as that of external excitation and the displacement vector lags the force vector
by some angle.

x = ωX. Cos (ωt - )

x = - ω2 X. Sin (ωt - ), substitute these values in GDE, (equation 3.1)

Phase Angle, , ζ = 2.0
The following characteristics of the phase angle can be observed from the graph
1) For undamped system the phase angle is 00 for 0<r<1, and 1800 for r>1. This implies
that the excitation and response are in phase for 0<r<1 and out of phase for r>1 when
ζ =0.
2) For ζ >0 and 0<r<1 the phase angle is given by 0 0<<900, implying that the response
lags excitation.
3) For ζ >0 and r>1, the phase angle is given by 90 0<< 1800, implying that the response
leads excitation.
4) For ζ >0 and r=1, the phase angle is =900 implying that the phase difference between
the excitation and response is 900.
5) For ζ >0 and large values of r, the phase angle ω approaches 1800 implying that the
response and excitation are out of phase.
The damping factor ζ has a large influence on amplitude and phase angle in the region where
r = 1(resonance).The phenomenon represented be frequency response curve can be further
better understood by means of vector diagram as follows. Consider three different cases as
(1) ω/ ωn << 1 (2) ω/ ωn = 1 (3) ω/ ωn >> 1
At very low frequencies, when ω is very small, the inertia for m ω 2x and the damping force
Cωx are very small.

This results in small values of as shown in fig .The impressed force F0 is almost equal and

With increased value of ω, the damping force Cωx and inertia force m ω 2 x increase. The
phase angle also increases. If ω is increased to such an extent that phase angle =900, the
force polygon becomes a rectangle as shown. The spring force and inertia vectors become
equal and opposite.
KX = m ω2 x
ω = √(K/m) = ωn
ω = ωn
ω / ωn =1
This is the response condition of the system during which the forcing frequency is equal to
natural frequency of the system. Also the impressed force is completely balanced by the
damping force.

At very large values of ω > approaches 1800, the inertia force becomes very large, where as
the spring force and damping force vectors becomes negligibly small. The improved force is
wholly utilized in balancing the inertia force.

NUMERICAL EXAMPLES:
3.1) A machine part of mass 2.5 Kgs vibrates in a viscous medium. A harmonic exciting
force of 30 N acts on the part and causes resonant amplitude of 14mm with a period of
0.22sec. Find the damping coefficient. If the frequency of the exciting force is changed to
4Hz, determine the increase in the amplitude of forced vibration upon removal of the damper.
Part 1: At Resonance
ωn = forcing frequency = 2/ τ = 28.56 rad/sec
As ω/ ωn = 1, X = (F0/K)/2ζ = 0.014
... ζ = 0.526
Damping coefficient = C = Cc ζ = 2m ωn ζ
= 2*2.5*28.56*0.526
= 75.04 N/m/s
C = 0.07504 Ns/m
3.2) A body having a mass of 15 kgs, is suspended from a spring which deflects 12mm due to
the weight of the mass. Determine the frequency of free vibrations. What viscous damping
force is needed to make the motion a periodic at a speed of 1mm/sec.
If when, damped to this extent, a disturbing force having a maximum value of 100N
and vibrating at 6Hz is made to act on the body. Determine the amplitude of ultimate motion.
Solution:
Data: m = 15Kg; F0 = 100 N; f = 6Hz; Δst = 12mm;
(b) The motion becomes aperiodic, when the damped frequency is zero or when it is critically
damped (ζ = 1).
ω = ωn = √(g/ Δ) = 28.59 rad/sec
C = Cc = 2m ωn = 2*15*28.59 = 857 N/m/s
= 0.857 N/mm/s
Thus a force of 0.857 N is required at a rate of 1mm/s to make the motion a periodic.

Condition for peak amplitude of vibration
(Expression for peak amplitude)
The frequency at which the maximum amplitude occurs can be obtained as follows.
X Xst
M= Xst X = √ [1 - r2] 2 + [2ζr] 2
i.e., for a system acted upon by a known harmonic force, the amplitude depends only on (ω/
ωn). Hence for X to be maximum √ [1 – r2] 2 + [2ζr] 2 should be minimum.
dx dx
d(ω/ ωn) d(r) ([1 - r2] 2 + [2ζr] 2) = 0

ωp = frequency at which peak amplitude occurs.
Where ωp refers to the forcing frequency corresponding to the peak amplitude. No maximum
or peak will1occur when the expression within the radical sign becomes negative i.e., for ζ >
or for ζ > 0.707.
√2
( ωp
ωn ) = √1 -2 ζ 2
r = √1 -2 ζ2 = ω/ωn
also we have,
X/Xst = 1 for Xmax = r =√1 -2 ζ2
√ [1 - r2] 2 + [2ζr] 2
Xmax/Xst = 1
√ [1 – (1 -2 ζ2 )] 2 + [4ζ2(1 -2 ζ2 )]

2 ζ √ (1 -ζ2 )
Xmax/(F0/K) = 1
2 ζ √ (1 -ζ2 )
Xmaxmωn2/F0 = 1
2 ζ √ (1 -ζ2 )
25*0.013* ωn2/25 = 1
2 ζ √ (1 -ζ2 )
Now substitute for ωn2 from eq.(1);
0.013*28.6/(√1 -2 ζ2) = 1
2 ζ √ (1 -ζ2)
1.0633/(√1 -2 ζ2) = 1
2 ζ √ (1 -ζ2)
Squaring and rearranging,
ζ4 - ζ2 +0.117 = 0
Z2 – Z + 0.117 = 0 where ζ2 = Z.
Solving the quadratic equation
ζ = 0.368, 0.93
The larger value of ζ is to be discarded because the amplitude would be maximum only
for ζ < 0.707 ... take ζ = 0.368
3.4) A weight attached to a spring of stiffness 525 N/m has a viscous damping device. When
the weight is displaced and released, without damper the period of vibration is found to be
1.8secs, and the ratio of consecutive amplitudes is 4.2 to 1.0. Determine the amplitude and
phase when the force F=2Cos3t acts on the system.
Solution:
Data: K = 525 N/m; τ = 1.8secs: x1 = 4.2; x2 = 1.0; F = F0sinωt = 2cos3t

3.5) The damped natural frequency of a system as obtained from a free vibration test is 9.8
cps. During a forced vibration test with a harmonic excitation on the same system, the
frequency of vibration corresponding to peak amplitude was found to be 9.6 cps.
Determine the damping factor for the system and natural frequency.
3.6) A reciprocating pump of mass 300 Kgs is mounted at the middle of a steel plate of
thickness 12 mm and width 500 mm and length 2.5 m damped along two edges as shown.
During the operation of the pump, the plate is subjected to a harmonic excitation of F(t) = 50
cos 60 t N. Determine the amplitude of vibration of the plate.
