4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is damping in mechanical systems?
Think about why vibrations might decrease over time.
Name one type of damping.
Recall the terms we discussed.
What type of damping oscillates with decreasing amplitude?
Think about how the amplitude behaves over time.
True or False: Critically damped systems oscillate.
Recall how these systems behave when disturbed.
Calculate the damping ratio for a mass-spring system with mass 5 kg, spring constant 200 N/m, and damping coefficient 10 Ns/m.
Use the formula for the damping ratio.
Discuss how you would design a damping system for a tall building in an earthquake-prone area.
Consider the types of damping systems we discussed.
