Free And Forced Vibrations

Product Description

Free And Forced Vibrations

Experiments

• Free and forced vibrations of a rigid beam and spring
• Free and forced vibrations of a flexible pinnedpinned simply supported) beam
• Using Rayleighs approximation to predict vibration frequenc
• Frequency of oscillation and varying mass
• Finding the beam only frequency using Dunkerleys Method
• Phase difference between displacement, its derivatives and measured acceleration
• Damped free and forced oscillations and damping coefficient
• Phase relationship between the applied force and beam position for different damping values
