    This document discusses free vibration of an undamped torsional system. It describes how the angular displacement of a rigid body oscillating about a reference axis is known as torsional vibration. The restoring moment is due to the torsion of an elastic member, like a shaft. The equation of motion for the system is derived using Newton's second law. The natural frequency of the system depends on the torsional spring constant of the shaft. Rayleigh's energy method is also introduced to find the natural frequencies of single degree of freedom systems using the principle of conservation of energy.

    Free Vibration of an Undamped Torsional System

    If a rigid body oscillate (Angular) about a specific reference axis, the resulting
    motion is called torsional vibration
    The displacement of the body is measured in terms of a angular coordinate
    The restoring moment may be due to the torsion of an elastic member or to the
    unbalanced moment of a force or couple

    (cont’d)

    Considering a disc mounted on the shaft as shown in


    fig, resulting torque is given by

    Where G = shear modulus and I0 = polar moment of


    inertia of cross section of shaft and is given by

    Equation of Motion
    The equation of the angular motion of the disc about its axis can be derived
    by using Newton’s second laws

    By comparing above equation and free vibration for translational system,


    equation for natural frequency can be derived as:

    Hence time period and frequency is given by:

    Important aspects of this system
    If the cross section of the shaft supporting the disc is not circular, an
    appropriate torsional spring constant is to be used
    The polar mass moment of inertia of a disc is given by
    ρ = mass density;
    h = thickness of disc;
    D = diameter;
    W = weight of disc and
    g = acceleration due to
    gravity
    The general solution

    Using initial condition for displacement θ and


    velocity θ’ be θ0 and θ’0 at t = 0. Constant are given as:

    Rayleigh’s Energy Method

    We will use energy method to find the natural frequencies of a


    single degree of freedom systems
    The principle of conservation of energy, in the context of an
    undamped vibrating system, can be restated as

    Subscript 1 denote the time when the mass is passing through its
    static equilibrium position (U1=0 (Potential Energy))
    Subscript 2 indicate the time corresponding to the maximum
    displacement of the mass (T2=0 (Kinetic Energy))

    If the system is undergoing harmonic motion, then T1and U2 denote


    the maximum values
