Degree of Freedom
Cycle
An interval of time during which a regularly repeated events or sequence of
event occurs
The movement of a vibrating body from its undisturbed or equilibrium position
to its extreme position in one direction, then to the equilibrium position, then to
its position in other direction, and back to equilibrium position
Amplitude
The maximum displacement of a vibrating body from its equilibrium position
Frequency
Number of cycles described in one second. It is represented in Hertz (SI units)
Natural Frequency
Frequency of the system having vibration without friction
If a system, after an initial disturbances, is left to vibrate on its own, the
frequency with which it oscillates without external forces are called natural
frequency
Resonance
Occurs when the frequency of the excitation is equal to the natural frequency of
the system. The failure of major structures such as bridges, buildings, or air
plane wings is an awesome possibility under resonance.
Forced Vibrations
When the body vibrates under the influence of external force, the
body is said to be under forced vibrations. The external force applied
to the body is a periodic disturbing force created by unbalance. The
vibration have the same frequency as the applied force.
Damped Vibrations
When there is reduction in amplitude over every cycle of vibration,
the motion is said to be damped vibration
Longitudinal Vibrations
When the particles of the shaft or disc moves parallel to the axis of
the shaft then the vibrations are known as longitudinal vibrations
Transverse Vibrations
When the particles of the shaft or disc move approximately
perpendicular to the axis of the shaft then the vibrations are known as
transverse vibration
Torsional Vibrations
When the particles of the shaft or disc move in a circle about the axis
of the shaft then the vibrations are known as torsional vibration
