Mechanical Vibrations – UUS 304E

Homework #1

(First define the problem, write down what is given, the quantities to be calculated.)

Solution

The Signal function:

𝑔(𝑥) = ⋯

The Fourier function:

∞
𝑛𝜋𝑥 𝑛𝜋𝑥
𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑎0 + ∑ (𝑎𝑛 cos + 𝑏𝑛 sin )
𝐿 𝐿
𝑛=1
Where
1 𝜋
𝑎0 = ∫ 𝑓(𝑥)𝑑𝑥
𝜋 −𝜋
1 𝜋
𝑎𝑛 = ∫ 𝑓(𝑥) cos(𝑛𝑥) 𝑑𝑥
𝜋 −𝜋
1 𝜋
𝑏𝑛 = ∫ 𝑓(𝑥) sin(𝑛𝑥) 𝑑𝑥
𝜋 −𝜋
and n=1, 2, 3, ....

(The above equations are given as samples. Using word equation tools, write your own Fourier series
approximation and signal function.)
