Question #150757
A 110 kg machine is mounted on an elastic foundation of stiffness 2 x106 When operating at 150 rad, the machine is subject to a harmonic force of magnitude 1500 N. The steady-state amplitude of the machine is measured as 1.9 mm. What is the damping ratio of the foundation?

Natural frequency, ωn=km=2106110=134.84rads\omega_n=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2*10^6}{110}}=134.84\frac{rad}{s}

A=F0/k[1(ωωn)2]2+[2ξωωn]2A=\frac{F_0/k}{\sqrt{[1-(\frac{\omega}{\omega_n})^2]^2+[\frac{2\xi\omega}{\omega_n}]^2}}

1.9103=1500/2106[1(ωωn)2]2+[2ξωωn]21.9*10^{-3}=\frac{1500/2*10^6}{\sqrt{[1-(\frac{\omega}{\omega_n})^2]^2+[\frac{2\xi\omega}{\omega_n}]^2}}

[1(ωωn)2]2+[2ξωωn]2=150021061.9103=1538{[1-(\frac{\omega}{\omega_n})^2]^2+[\frac{2\xi\omega}{\omega_n}]^2}=\frac{1500}{2*10^6*1.9*10^{-3}}=\frac{15}{38}
