Forced Vibration With Hysteresis Damping 2
Forced Vibration With Hysteresis Damping 2
Consider a single degree of freedom with hysteresis damping and subjected to a harmonic
force F(t)= FoSin(ωt), as indicated in Fig (1) The equation of motion can be derived .
Fig (1)
Where (βk/ω) X’ = (h/ω) X’ denotes the damping force. Although the solution of Eq (1) is
quite involved for a general forcing function F(t), our interest is to find the response under a
harmonic force.
Example :-
A load of 5000 N resulted in a static displacement of 0.05 m in a composite structure. A
harmonic force of amplitude 1000 N is found to cause a resonant amplitude of 0.1 m. Find
Solution
