1.3 Importance of the Study of Vibration
• Why study vibration? Vibrations can lead to excessive deflections
and failure on the machines and structures
To reduce vibration through proper design of
machines and their mountings
To utilize profitably in several consumer and
industrial applications
To improve the efficiency of certain machining,
casting, forging & welding processes
To stimulate earthquakes for geological
research and conduct studies in design of nuclear reactors

1.4 Basic Concepts of Vibration
Vibration = any motion that repeats itself after
an interval of time
Vibratory System consists of:
1) spring or elasticity 2) mass or inertia
3) damper
Involves transfer of potential energy to kinetic

1.4 Basic Concepts of Vibration
Degree of Freedom (d.o.f.) =
min. no. of independent coordinates required to determine completely the positions of all
parts of a system at any instant of time

1.4 Basic Concepts of Vibration
Example of Infinite-
number-of-degrees-of-freedom system:
Infinite number of degrees of freedom system
are termed continuous or distributed systems
Finite number of degrees of freedom are
termed discrete or lumped parameter systems
More accurate results obtained by increasing

1.5 Classification of Vibration
Free Vibration:
A system is left to vibrate on its own after an
initial disturbance and no external force acts on the system. E.g. simple pendulum
Forced Vibration:
A system that is subjected to a repeating
external force. E.g. oscillation arises from diesel engines
Resonance occurs when the frequency of the
external force coincides with one of the natural frequencies of the system

1.5 Classification of Vibration
Undamped Vibration:
When no energy is lost or dissipated in friction or other resistance during oscillations
Damped Vibration:
When any energy is lost or dissipated in
friction or other resistance during oscillations
Linear Vibration:
When all basic components of a vibratory system, i.e. the spring, the mass and the damper behave linearly

1.6 Vibration Analysis Procedure

Example 1.1
© 2005 Pearson Education South Asia Pte Ltd. 25
Using mathematical model to represent the
actual vibrating system
E.g. In figure below, the mass and damping
of the beam can be disregarded; the system can thus be modeled as a spring-mass
system as shown.

1.9 Damping Elements
Viscous Damping:
Damping force is proportional to the velocity of the vibrating body in a fluid medium such as air, water, gas, and oil.
Coulomb or Dry Friction Damping:
Damping force is constant in magnitude but
opposite in direction to that of the motion of the vibrating body between dry surfaces
Material or Solid or Hysteretic Damping:
Energy is absorbed or dissipated by material during deformation due to friction between internal planes

Let the total forces acting on all the springs and all the dampers be Fs and Fd, respectively (see Fig. 1.37d). The force equilibrium equations can thus be expressed as
