1 Goals
Oscillations in the presence of damping
Oscillations in the presence of oscillating external force
Damped Oscillations
• Non-conservative forces may be present – Friction is a common nonconservative force – No longer an ideal system (such as those dealt with so far) • The mechanical energy of the system diminishes in time, motion is said to be damped • The motion of the system can be decaying oscillations if the damping is “weak”.
• If damping is “strong”, motion may die away without oscillating. • Still no driving force, once system has been started
2 Add Damping: Emech not constant, oscillations not simple • Spring oscillator as before, but with dissipative force
Fdamp neglect such as the system in the figure, with vane moving in fluid. gravity
Fdamp viscous drag force, proportional to velocity
Fdamp = −bv

Types of Damping, cont.
a) an underdamped oscillator b) a critically damped oscillator c) an overdamped oscillator
For critically damped and overdamped oscillators there is no periodic motion and the angular frequency ω has a different meaning

2 Underdamped: b k 2 << ≡ ω0 for which ω'≈ ω0 4m2 m The restoring force is large compared to the damping force. The system oscillates with decaying amplitude 2 Critically damped: b k 2 ≈ ≡ ω0 for which ω'≈ 0 4m2 m The restoring force and damping force are comparable in effect. The system can not oscillate; the amplitude dies away exponentially 2 Overdamped: b k 2 > ≡ ω0 for which ω' is imaginary 4m2 m The damping force is much stronger than the restoring force. The amplitude dies away as a modified exponential Note: Cos( ix ) = Cosh( x )
Forced (Driven) Oscillations and Resonance An external driving force starts oscillations in a stationary system The amplitude remains constant (or grows) if the energy input per cycle exactly equals (or exceeds) the energy loss from damping
Eventually, Edriving = Elost and a steady-state condition is reached Oscillations then continue with constant amplitude
Oscillations are at the driving frequency ωD

near RESONANCE (ωD ~
ω0) As damping becomes weaker Æ resonance sharpens & amplitude at resonance increases.
Resonance
At resonance, the applied force is in phase with the velocity and the power Fov transferred to the oscillator is a maximum. The amplit ud e of resonant oscillations can become enormous when the damping is weak, storing enormous amounts of energy
Applications: • buildings driven by earthquakes • bridges under wind load • all kinds of radio devices, microwave • other numerous applications
