Free Vibration
• Free Vibration. If a system,
after an initial disturbance, is
left to vibrate on its own, the
ensuing vibration is known as
free vibration.
• In every actual case of free
vibration, there exists some
retarding or damping force
which tends to diminish the
motion.
• Undamped
• Damped

Example 1:
• A body weighing 25 lb is suspended from a
spring of constant k=160 lb/ft. At time t = 0, it
has a downward velocity of 2 ft/sec as it
passes through the position of static
equilibrium. Determine:
• (a) the static spring deflection 𝛿𝑠𝑡
𝑚 𝑔 = 𝑘(𝛿𝑠𝑡 )
