1.1. Geometry#

_images/Shape1.gif

The system with 1 degree of freedom is of the mass \(M\) type at the end of a spring of stiffness \(K\) oriented in the vertical direction \(z\).

1.2. Material properties#

Spring stiffness \(K\): \(36.{\pi }^{2}N\mathrm{/}m\)

Point mass \(M\): \(1\mathit{kg}\)

The values are chosen so as to have a natural pulsation of the mass-spring system \({\omega }_{0}\) such that:

\({\omega }_{0}\mathrm{=}6.\pi \mathit{rad}\mathrm{/}s\) because \({{\omega }_{0}}^{2}\mathrm{=}K\mathrm{/}M\).

1.3. Geometric characteristics#

The movement is done in the vertical direction \(z\).

1.4. Boundary conditions and loads#

The base of the spring is embedded, the only degree of freedom is therefore the following movement \(z\) of the point mass M which is fixed to the other end of the spring.

The imposed load is a vertical sinusoidal force \(F(t)\) imposed on the point mass M:

\(F(t)=\mathrm{sin}(\mathrm{1,1}\mathrm{.}{\omega }_{0}\mathrm{.}t)\).

1.5. Initial conditions#

The system is initially at rest.
