Free Vibration:
Vibration of a system under the
action of forces inherent in the
system itself and in the absence
of externally applied forces.
The response of a system is
called free vibration when it is
disturbed and then left free to
vibrate about some mean
position.
Forced Vibration:
Vibration of a system
caused by an external
force.
Vibrations that result
from regular (rotating
or pulsating
machinery) and
irregular (chemical
process plant)
exciting agencies are
also called as forced
vibrations.

Example 1:
A machine foundation can be identified as a mass-spring system, This is subjected
to a forced vibration. The vibrating force is expressed as Q = Qo sin t; Qo = 6.7 kN
and = 3100 rad/min. Given: Weight of machine + foundation = 290 kN; and
spring constant = 875 MN/m. Determine the maximum and minimum force
transmitted to the subgrade.
Solution 1:
Given that: Qo = 6.7 kN
= 3100 rad/min = 51.67 rad/s
Weight of machine + foundation, W = 290 kN
Spring constant = 875 MN/m
Example 2:
A body weighs 135 N. A spring and a dashpot are attached to the body in the figure
shown. The spring constant is 2600 N/m. the dashpot has a resistance of 0.7 N at a
velocity of 60 mm/s. Determine the following for free vibration:
a) Damped natural frequency of the system; b) Damping ratio; c) Ratio of
successive amplitudes of the body (Zn/Zn+1); d) Amplitude of the body 5cycles after
it is disturbed, assuming that at time, t = 0, z = 25 mm.

Q4 A spring-mass system consists of a spring k1 and a mass m1, as shown in the
figure. An auxiliary spring k2 and mass m2 are attached.
What should be the value to k2 so that the auxiliary spring-mass system acts a
vibration absorber for the main system (k1, m1)? Given Q = 100 N and =
