Step Forces: A step force jumps suddenly from zero to po and stays constant at that value.
We can solve the differential equation with the general initial conditions using Duhamel’s
Integral.
For Undamped SDOF:
2 t
u (t ) = (u st ) o [1 − cos( n t )] = (u st ) o [1 − cos ]

u (t ) = (u st ) o 1 − e − nt [cos( D t ) + sin( D t )]

Ramp Forces: An applied force that increases linearly with time. We assume the maximum
amplitude does not cause yielding of SDOF system.
