    Tutorial 1
    Vibrations – Support Motion / Base Excitation

    1. In the simple case of support excitation shown in Figure 1, derive the equation for the total
    force transmitted to the base support and show that the force transmissibility ratio is:

    2
     
    2 1   2 
    FT   
       n 
    kY  n   2    
    2 2

     1  2    2 
     n   n 

    Figure 1
    where FT is the amplitude or maximum value of force transmitted to the base support.
    Plot a graph of Force Transmissibility Ratio against Frequency Ratio for different values of
    damping ratio.
    Note: see example 2 in notes.

    2. Find an expression for the frequency ratio r = rm at which the displacement transmissibility ratio,
    Td, given below attains a maximum value.

    X ss 1  2r 2
    Td  
    Y 1  r   2r 

    3. A very common example of base motion is the single-degree-of-freedom model of an


    automobile driving over a rough road or an airplane taxiing over a rough runway as indicated in
    Figure 3. The road is approximated as sinusoidal in cross section providing a base motion
    displacement of:
    yt  0.01sint

    (i) The vehicle's speed determines the frequency of the base motion, so establish an
    expression for  in terms of the vehicle's velocity in km/h,  .
     1  hour  2 rad 
    Ans:   km / hr  
    
    
       0.2909
     0.006km  3600s  cycle 

    (ii) Determine the effect of speed on the amplitude of displacement of two automobiles:
    a. supermini of mass 1007kg.
    b. medium family sedan of mass 1585kg.

    Assume that the suspension system on both cars provides an equivalent stiffness (k) of 4 x 105
    N/m and damping (c) of 20 x 103 Ns/m, and consider four speeds in your analysis: 20km/h,
    80km/h, 100km/h and 150km/h.

    Figure 3. Simple model of a vehicle traveling with constant velocity on a rough surface that is
    approximated as a sinusoid.

    4. A large rotating machine causes the floor of a factory to oscillate sinusoidally. A punch press is
    to be mounted on the same floor. The displacement of the floor at the point where the punch
    press is to be mounted is measured to be:
    yt  0.1sint cm

    Using the base support model analysis in Question 1, calculate the maximum force transmitted
    to the punch press at resonance if the machine is mounted on a rubber fitting of stiffness, k =
    40000 N/m; damping, c = 900 Ns/m; and mass, m = 3000 kg.
    Ans: 489.4N

    5. For a vibrograph, in which there is damping between the mass and the vibrating support,
    determine the maximum value of the recorded amplitude (the relative amplitude, z, between
    the support and the mass) in terms of the amplitude of vibration of the support (y) as the
    frequency is varied, if the damping is 0.6 of the critical. Also plot the form of response curve up
    to a frequency of four times the natural undamped frequency.
    Ans: Max Amplitude Ratio = 1.042 at frequency ratio 1.89
