Free Response of a Mass/Spring/Damper System
Method
1) Choose axis system and apply +ve deflection.
Draw Free Body Diagram
2) Apply Newton’s 2nd Law
( Force = m*d2x/dt2 Torque = I*d2/dt2 )
3) Write out Equation of Motion
4) Apply trial solution Aet
5) Find Characteristic Equation, solve to find Roots l1 and l2
6) Determine General Solution
Again, we are going to follow the same steps as we did last week
to predict the behaviour of a mass/spring/damper system.

6) General Solution
The general solution for free motion of a mass/Spring/
Damper system is of the form
n t n 2 1 t n t n 2 1 t
x A1e
A2e
x = A1e-3.75t + A2e-17.05t
or x = A1e-t/0.27 + A2e-t/0.06
Notes : A1 and A2 can be found from initial conditions.
Case 1 > 1 Overdamped response
( c = 7.15 kNs/m ) -t/0.27
x = A1e + A2e-t/0.06
x A2e-t/0.06 term will decay faster than the A1e-t/0.27 term.
Hence we say the response is dominated by A1e-t/0.27
A1 It is dominated by the root 1 = -3.75

Special case for repeated roots:
x = A1e-8t + t A2e-8t
or x = A1e-t/0.125 + t A2e-t/0.125
( 40.125 gives a reasonable estimate of settle time)
