Dynamics of Structures

I. Introduction
1.1 Dynamic and Dynamics
Dynamic load--- any load of which its magnitude, direction, and/or point of application varies with
the time. If it is applied to an engineering structure, the resulting deflections and stresses
(response) are also time-varying (dynamic).
If the loading is a known function of time, the corresponding analysis of a specified structural
system is called a deterministic analysis. Otherwise, if the time history of the loading is not
completely known (or only known in a statistical sense---random), the structural response analysis
is nondeterministic.
Static, statics

1.3 Degrees of Freedom


The number of independent coordinates necessary to specify the configuration or position of a
system at any time is referred to as the number of degrees of freedom (DOF).
The analytical models in analysis stage fall into two basic categories:
discrete-parameter models
continuous models
Figure 1.2 shows these models of a cantilever beam (small deformation). The discrete-parameter
models here are called lumped-mass models because the mass of the system is assumed to be
represented by a small number of point masses, or particles. They are described by finite DOF systems,
while a continuous model represents an infinite DOF system (Fig.1.2c).

(b) Three DOF model

(c) Distributed mass model

Fig.1.2 Discrete-parameter and continuous analytical models of a cantilever beam.


However, in cases where the mass of the system is quite uniformly distributed throughout, an
alternative approach to limiting the number of degrees of freedom may be preferable. This procedure is
based on the assumption that the deflected shape of the structure can be expressed as the sum of a
series of specified displacement patterns. The amplitudes of these patterns may be considered to be the
displacement coordinates of the system, and the infinite number of DOF of the actual beam is
represented by the infinite number of terms included in the series. Generally, the expression for the
displacement of any one-dimensional structure might be

u ( x)

Zn

( x)

where n(x) represents a geometric shape function which is compatible with the prescribed geometricsupport conditions and maintains the necessary continuity. Its contribution to the resulting shape of the
structure depends upon the amplitude Zn, which will be referred to as generalised coordinates.

Single-Degree-of-Freedom Systems (SDOF)

2.1 Basic Dynamic System and its Equation of Motion


The essential physical properties of any linearly elastic structural or mechanical system subjected to an
external source of excitation or dynamic loading are its mass, elastic properties and energy-loss
mechanism or damping. In the simplest model of a SDOF system, each of these properties is assumed
to be represented by a single physical element (mass block, spring and dashpot). A sketch of such a
system is shown in Fig. 2.1

Substituting expressions of the relevant forces, the final equation of motion is

Derivation of the equation of motion by virtual displacement principle


If the mass is given a virtual displacement u compatible with the system's constraints, the total virtual
work done by the equilibrium system of forces must be zero

Considering u is arbitrary and nonzero, the same equation of motion as Eq.(2.2) can be obtained.
Example 1: Influence of weight (gravitational forces)
Rotating the model of Fig2.1(a) clockwise to a vertical position (90 degree) as shown in Fig.2.2,
the influence of weight of the mass must be considered in equilibrium equation of the system.

(2.4)

W / k is the static displacement of the mass on the linear spring and

ur is the displacement of the mass measured relative to the static equilibrium position, the equation of
motion after substituting these relation into Eq.(2.4) is simplified to
mur (t ) cu r (t ) k u r (t ) p (t )
(2.5)
Example 2: Influence of support movement
Dynamic stresses and deflections can be induced in a structure not only by a time-varying applied
load, but also by motions of its support points such as the motions of a building caused be
earthquake etc. (Fig.2.3).
Since the inertial force in this case is given by

mut (t ) ,

f I (t )

(2.6)

the equilibrium equation leads

mut (t ) cu(t ) k u(t )

(2.4)
p(t )
Where total displacement ut , the displacement of the structure's base relative to a fixed reference axis
ug and the structure's displacement relative to the support u has a relation of

u t (t ) u (t ) u g (t )

(2.5)

The equation of motion of Eq.(2.4) can more conveniently be written

mu(t ) cu(t ) k u(t )

p(t ) mug (t )

(2.6)

2.2 Analysis of SDOF System


The solution of the general equation (2.2) of motion is
u(t)=up(t)+uc(t)
(2.7)
where up(t) is a particular solution related directly to p(t) and uc(t) a complementary solution. To find
up(t) and uc(t), it is convenient to rewrite Eq.(2.2) as

2.2.3 Response of SDOF system to harmonic loading


Assume a SDOF system is subjected to a load varying harmonically with time, saying sine- (or/and
cosine-) wave form. Without loss generality, p(t) in Eq.(2.2) can be assumed a force having an
amplitude p0 and circular frequency
and

(c) Resonant response


It is apparent that from Fig.2.8 the steady-state response amplitude of an undamped system tends
towards infinity as the frequency ratio approaches unity. For some other lower value of damping, it is
seen that the maximum steady-state response amplitude occurs at a frequency ratio slightly less than
unity. To find the maximum or peak value of dynamic magnification factor, the differentiating result of
Eq.(2.30) with respect to will give

2.3 Response to Impulsive Loading


Property
The load is of short duration
Damping has much less importance in controlling the maximum response of a structure because
the maximum response to a particular impulsive load will be reached in a very short time, before the
damping forces can absorb much energy from the structure.
Two phases: forced and free vibration during and after loading respectively.
Example 4: Response of sine wave impulse
Phase 1
During this phase, the structure is subjected to a single half sine wave loading as shown in the right figure. Assuming
that the system starts from rest, the undamped response
ratio, including the transient as well as the steady-state term,
is given by Eq.(2.27)

The free vibration which occurs during this phase (t t1) depends on the displacement u(t1) and velocity
u (t1 ) existing at the end of Phase I. In terms of the response ratio, it depends on the values of R(t1) and

R (t1 ) . Considering the displacement response of free vibration of undamped system Eq.(2.11), we
have

The maximum (displacement) response can occur in either Phase I or Phase II depending on the ratio of

However, if =1, both Eq.(2.38) and Eq.(2.40) are not suitable. Please derive the similar expressions
for the displacement response (in terms of response ratio).

2.4 Response to Arbitrary Loading*


General arbitrary loading, Duhamel integral (Time-domain)
For an arbitrary loading as shown in Fig.2.15. it can be considered as a combination of numerous
(infinite in fact) successive unit impulses (loading). At time t= , the loading acting during the interval
of time d represents a very short-duration impulse p( )d on the system, which leads a displacement
response increment effected from that time t- 0 .
Hence the response increment due to p( )d can be
p(t)
calculated based on either Eq.(2.43) or Eq.(2.45)
for undamped system

It is seen that Eq.(2.48) suggests the loading was

time. If the initial conditions are not zeros, the
additional free vibration response must be added to
this solution.

Should the nonzero initial conditions be produced by loading p(t) for t<0, the response can also be
