MDOF Systems
Multiple degrees of freedom linear systems are very simple to study if we adopt a matrix notation for the equation of motion...
- Vectorial equation of dynamic equilibrium.
- Linear relationship between displacement, acceleration vector and elastic, inertial force vector are written in terms of a matrix product.
- Homogeneous equation of motion, equation of frequencies, eigenvalues and eigenvectors, eigenvectors' properties.
- Modal superposition.
- A complete example of solution.
- the slides i used for my lesson
- a ready to print version of the slides,
- a notebook with the solution of the last example discussed in today lecture, and
- a compressed archive with the notebook and all the support files.
