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.
