CHAPTER 10
TREATING MULTI-DIMENSIONAL SYSTEMS
Chapter 1 through Chapter 9 developed basic principles of dynamics and control of
single degree of freedom systems. The interacting parameters were composed of
physical parameters, dynamic performance parameters (both natural and
controlled), and control parameters. Since we were concerned with single degreeof-freedom systems, the relationships that were developed were temporal in nature,
that is, associated with how quantities change in time. In this chapter, we’ll
develop basic principles of dynamics and control of two degree-of-freedom
systems. While doing this we’ll develop new relationships that are spatial in
nature. We will be able to answers questions like where the actuators should be
located and how many actuators to use.
Perhaps the first thing to realize about multi-dimensional systems is that they’re
more complex than single degree-of-freedom systems and that a way of handling
this added complexity is necessary. We handle this added complexity through
another separation principle. This separation principle enables us to treat the multidimensional system as separate single degree-of-freedom systems. Each of the
single degree-of-freedom systems is a “mode” of the system. In Chapter 11 we’ll
see under certain circumstances that a multi-dimensional system can be controlled
by controlling its individual modes.
1. Equations
Consider the undamped two degree of freedom system shown in Fig. 10 - 1.
Applying Newton’s second law of motion to each mass, we get the two equations
that govern the dynamics of the system
(10 – 1)
m1 x1  k 2 ( x 2  x1 )  k1 x1  f1
m2 x2  k 2 ( x 2  x1 )  k 3 x 2  f 2

or more compactly as

(10 – 3)
where x is called the position vector, F is called the force vector, M is called the
mass matrix, and K is called the stiffness matrix. Of course, systems with more
than two degrees-of-freedom can be written in this form, too.
2. The Eigenvalue Problem
Let’s study freely vibrating two degree-of-freedom systems. We let F = 0 in Eq.
(10 – 3) and try solutions in the form
(10 – 4)
x  e st
Substitute Eq. (10 – 4) into Eq. (10 – 3) and divide the result by e st to get
(10 – 5)
[ s 2 M  K ]φ  0
Equation (10 – 5) admits a nontrivial solution only if the matrix in brackets is
singular, in which case
(10 – 6)
det[ s 2 M  K ]  0
Equation (10 – 6) is called the characteristic equation of the system. It yields the
values of s and corresponding  in Eq. (10 – 4) that satisfy the free vibration
problem. For the mass matrix and stiffness matrix given in Eq. (10 – 2), Eq. (10 –
6) becomes

TREATING MULTI-DIMENSIONAL SYSTEMS
Equation (10 – 7) is a quadratic equation in terms of s2, admitting two solutions
s12 and s 22 . Each solution is substituted back into Eq. (10 – 5) to obtain the
associated vectors φ1 and φ 2 . Equation (10 – 5) is called the eigenvalue problem
associated with the equations of motion, Eq. (10 – 3). The complex numbers s are
called eigenvalues and the corresponding vectors, φ 1 and φ 2 , are called
eigenvectors. The eigenvectors are also called natural modes of vibration.
Since the eigenvalue problem is a homogeneous equation, the eigenvectors are
unique up to a multiplicative constant. In other words, any multiple of an
eigenvector is itself an eigenvector. Therefore, without loss of generality, when
finding the eigenvectors we can let the first entry in each eigenvector be equal to
one, that is,
(10 – 8)

The eigenvectors are found by substituting Eq. (10 – 8) back into Eq. (10 – 5). The
eigenvectors in Eq. (10 - 8) is said to be normalized. Note that we’ll normalize the
eigenvectors in a different way in Section 3.
Example
Consider the two degree-of-freedom system given in which m1 = m2 = m, k1 = k3 =
k, and k2 = k in Eq. (10 – 2). The two masses are the same and the middle spring
is  times stiffer than the springs on the ends. The system mass matrix and
stiffness matrix are

3. Properties of Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors
The two degree of freedom systems considered above are composed of mass and
stiffness. In Eq. (10 – 2) the mass matrix and the stiffness matrix are both
symmetric matrices. This was not coincidental. In fact, in any two degree-offreedom system composed of mass and stiffness, the equations can be derived so
that the mass and stiffness matrices are symmetric.
Furthermore, the mass and stiffness matrices have another property; the property is
analogous to the sign property of numbers. The mass matrix can be said to be
positive much like the mass in a single degree of freedom system is positive, and
the stiffness matrix can be said to be nonnegative, much like the stiffness in a
single degree of freedom system is nonnegative. Of course, M and K are matrices,
so we’ll need to define what we precisely mean by positive and nonnegative within
the context of matrices.
A symmetric matrix A is defined to be positive if the number y T Ay  0 for any
nonzero y. Similarly, a symmetric matrix A is defined to be nonnegative if the
number y T Ay  0 for any nonzero y. Utilizing these definitions, the mass and
stiffness matrices satisfy the following symmetry and definiteness properties:
M0
(10 – 9)
M  MT
K0
K  KT
The eigenvalues and eigenvectors of systems that satisfy Eq. (10 – 9) are said to be
normal mode systems. Normal mode systems satisfy three important properties.
(1) The first normal mode property states that the eigenvalues are pure imaginary.
Pre-multiplying Eq. (10 – 5) by φ T yields
(10 – 10)
0  φ T [ s 2 M  K ]φ  s 2 (φ T Mφ )  (φ T Kφ )
From Eq. (10 – 9)
(10 – 11)
s2  

so s  i 0 is pure imaginary, in which  0 is called a natural frequency of
oscillation. The eigenvalue problem, Eq. (10 – 5), can now be written as
(10 – 12)
 02 Mφ  Kφ
This is the form of the eigenvalue problem that is usually encountered.
(2) The second normal mode property states that the eigenvectors are real up to a
multiplicative constant. To show this, write the eigenvector in terms of its real and
imaginary components as
(10 – 13)
φ  φ R  φ Ii
Substitute Eq. (10 – 13) into Eq. (10 – 12) and separate the real and imaginary
parts to get
(10 – 14)
 02 Mφ R  Kφ R ,  02 Mφ I  Kφ I
Notice in Eq. (10 – 14) that the real part of the eigenvector and the imaginary part
of the eigenvector satisfy the same eigenvalue problem. Therefore, the
eigenvectors must be real – up to a multiplicative constant.
(3) The third normal mode property is the orthogonality property of the modes. To
show this property, pre-multiply the eigenvalue problem, Eq. (10 – 12), by the
transpose of the eigenvectors, as shown below:
2
φ T2 :  01
Mφ 1  Kφ 1
(10 – 15)
2
φ 1T :  02
Mφ 2  Kφ 2
Next, subtract the two equations, recognizing the properties given in Eq. (10 – 9),
to get
(10 – 16)
2
2
( 01
  02
)φ T2 Mφ 1  0
Equation (10 – 16) reveals that eigenvectors having distinct eigenvalues are
orthogonal with respect to the mass matrix. Substituting Eq. (10 – 15) into Eq. (10
– 16) further reveals that eigenvectors having distinct eigenvalues are orthogonal
with respect to the stiffness matrix, too. Indeed,
(10 – 17)
φ 1T Mφ 2  0, φ 1T Kφ 2  0
Next, let’s normalize the eigenvectors, not in the manner given in Eq. (10 – 8),
but rather according to the following:
CONTROL OF DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS: AN INTRODUCTORY APPROACH
TREATING MULTI-DIMENSIONAL SYSTEMS
(10 – 18)
φ 1T Mφ 1  1, φ T2 Mφ 2  1
Substituting Eq. (10 – 15) into Eq. (10 – 18) further reveals that
(10 – 19)
2
2
φ 1T Kφ 1   01
, φ 1T Kφ 2   02
Finally, the orthogonality property and the normalization in Eq. (10 – 16) through
Eq. (10 – 19) are written together in the more compact form as
(10 – 20)
φ Tr Mφ s   rs , φ Tr Kφ s   02r  rs
where  rs is the Kronecker-delta symbol in which  rs = 0 when r and s are different
and  rs =1 when r and s are equal. Orthogonal vectors that have been normalized
this way are called orthonormal.
In summary, the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of two degree-of-freedom systems
composed of mass and stiffness are normal in the sense that the eigenvalues are
pure imaginary (the system oscillates), the eigenvectors are real, and they satisfy
orthogonality properties with respect to the mass and stiffness matrices. As it turns
out, the third property is precisely what enables us to separate a multi-degree-offreedom system into an independent set of single degree-of-freedom systems.
4. Modal Equations of Motion
In the previous section, the eigenvalue problem was developed from the free
vibration problem. However, since the eigenvectors form a basis set, any vector x
can be expressed as a linear combination of the eigenvectors, whether x is
associated with the freely vibrating system or not. Indeed, we’ll now see the merit
of representing the general response of a two degree-of-freedom system in terms of
the eigenvectors. We begin by representing x as
(10 – 21)
x(t )  φ 1q1 (t ) φ 2q2 (t )
where q1 (t ) and q2 (t ) are called modal displacements. In Eq. (10 – 21) we see that
the r-th modal displacement represents the level of participation of the r-th mode
of vibration in the overall response. Pre-multiplying Eq. (10 – 21) by
1T M and  2T M , we get
(10 – 22)
q1 (t )  φ 1T Mx(t ), q2 (t )  φ T2 Mx(t )
Equation (10 – 21) and Eq. (10 – 22) are transformations between the physical
displacements x and the modal displacements q1 (t ) and q2 (t ) .
CONTROL OF DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS: AN INTRODUCTORY APPROACH
TREATING MULTI-DIMENSIONAL SYSTEMS
Let’s now replace the physical coordinates in Eq. (10 – 4) with modal coordinates.
Substituting Eq. (10 – 21) into Eq. (10 – 4) yields
(10 – 23)
M[φ 1q1 (t )  φ 2 q2 (t )]  K[φ 1q1 (t )  φ 2 q2 (t )]  F
Pre-multiplying Eq. (10 – 23) by 1T and  2T , and invoking the orthogonality
properties, Eq.(10 – 20), we get the equations that govern the modal motions of the
two degree-of-freedom system
2
q1 (t )   01
q1 (t )  Q1 (t )
(10 – 24)
2
q2 (t )   02
q2 (t )  Q2 (t )
where
(10 – 25)
Q1 (t )  φ 1T F, Q2 (t )  φ T2 F
are called modal forces. Equations (10 – 24) are two independent modal equations
of motion; each has the form of an undamped single degree-of-freedom system
subject to a modal force. The difference is that the coordinates are not physical –
they’re more abstract. The coordinates are amplitudes of components of the
motion. Likewise the model forces are not physical forces. They’re amplitudes of
the components of force, as you’ll see momentarily. The independence of the
modal equations implies that Q1 (t ) can excite or control only the first mode and
that Q2 (t ) can excite or control only the second mode. But, again, what are the
modal forces Q1 (t ) and Q2 (t ) ? How are they related to the physical forces?
The physical forces are expressed in terms of the modal forces as follows:
(10 – 26)
F  Mφ 1Q1 (t )  Mφ 2 Q2 (t )
Equation (10 – 26) can be verified by substituting Eq. (10 – 25) into Eq. (10 – 26)
to render an identity. Thus, just as the modal displacements represent the degree to
which a mode of vibration φ participates in the overall response, so too does a
modal force represent the degree to which a mode of force Mφ participates in the
overall force.
In summary, the modal transformations of the displacements and of the forces are
x(t )  φ 1q1 (t )  φ 2 q2 (t ), q1 (t )  φ 1T Mx(t ), q2 (t )  φ T2 Mx(t )
(10 – 27)
F  Mφ 1Q1 (t )  Mφ 2 Q2 (t ), Q1 (t )  φ 1T F, Q2 (t )  φ T2 F
The modal displacements act as coordinates of single degree-of-freedom systems,
each governed by a modal equation of motion, Eq. (10 – 24). Modal displacements

are excited by modal forces. The spatial relationship between the modal
components of force and motion are indicated symbolically below.

The modes of vibration and the modes of force are shown in Fig. 10 – 3.
Fig. 10 - 3
Equation (10 - 32) provides us with temporal information concerning the double
pendulum and Eq. (10 - 34) and (10 - 35) provide us with spatial information
concerning the double pendulum. We see that the first mode is a “pendulum” mode
wherein the system moves as a rigid body pendulum. The second mode is a
“pseudo-elastic” mode associated with the spring and gravity. Equation (10 - 34)
and Eq. (10 - 350 further reveal that applied moments in the proportions of
m1 to m2 produce displacements in the proportions of 1 to 1, and that applied
moments in the proportions of 1 to –1 produce displacements in the proportions of
m2 to - m1 . Information like this is very useful to know when setting out to control
the motion of a system.

6. Actuator Dynamics
The transient response of multi-degree-of-freedom systems was treated in the
previous sections. Let’s now look at the steady-state response of multi-degree-offreedom systems. We will do this in this section while examining actuator
dynamics. As mentioned earlier, the dynamics of an actuator can interact with a
system, producing a coupled system comprised of the mechanical part and the
actuator. Of course, such interactions are undesirable in the sense that they
complicate the design process – violating the goal to separate the components of a
system into independent parts. Furthermore, the manner in which an actuator is
mounted to a system is important. The method of mounting an actuator to a system
affects the coupling of the actuator to the system. Even if the dynamics of an
actuator and a system are uncoupled, the manner in which the actuator is mounted
to the system dictates whether the actuator should be regarded as prescribing a
force on the system or whether the actuator should be regarded as prescribing a
displacement on the system.
To sort this out, consider the two degree of freedom system given earlier in Eq. (10
- 2) and Eq. (10 - 3). Assume that the right mass and the right force represent an
actuator, that the left mass and the left spring represent a mechanical part, and that
the center spring is a mount between the actuator and the mechanical part (See Fig.
10 – 4).
Fig. 10 - 4
Furthermore, assume that the actuator harmonically excites the mechanical part
through the applied force F2. Let’s conduct a steady-state analysis to find the
response of this harmonically-excited system.
The mechanical force and the steady-state response are of the form

affect on X1. From Eq. (10 - 42), it follows that the actuator and the sensor can be

uncoupled only if the excitation frequency is significantly lower than the
frequency of the mechanical part; so we impose the necessary condition
(10 - 44)
  1
The actuator dynamics and the dynamics of the mechanical part are uncoupled in
the following two situations. In the first situation, the actuator prescribes a force
and in the second situation the actuator prescribes a displacement.
(a) Prescribed Force (Hard Mount)
Let the actuator be significantly less massive than the mechanical part and let it be
“hard mounted,” that is let r << 1 and 2 >> From Eq. (10 - 43)
(10 - 45)
FM = F0
The mount force is equal to the excitation force and independent of the excitation
frequency.
(b) Prescribed Displacement (Soft Mount)
Next, let the actuator be significantly less massive than the mechanical part and let
it be “soft mounted,” that is let r << 1 and 2 << From Eq. (10 - 42)
F
(10 - 46)
X2  0
k2
We see that the displacement of the actuator is proportional to the excitation force
and independent of the excitation frequency.
In summary, an actuator that acts on a single degree of freedom system, if it
produces a force according to Eq. (10 - 36), can be uncoupled from the system if
the excitation frequency is much lower than the frequency of the mechanical part.
Under these conditions, when the actuator is hard mounted to the system, it
prescribes a force. When the actuator is soft mounted to the system it prescribes a
displacement. These decoupling conditions are used in design to reduce
complexity.

PROBLEM STATEMENTS
Problem 10 – 1: Deriving Linear Differential Equations
(a) Carefully draw a free body diagram of each body. In the diagram, show the
system in a displaced position. Remember that the displacement is small.
The diagram should show a coordinate system for each body, all of the
forces acting on each body, and other dimensions that are needed. The
diagram should also list all of the given parameters.
Note: In the diagram there are rotated points. Say, point A is rotated about
point O. Remember for a small angle of rotation that point A moves
perpendicular to line OA. The displaced point A should be shown that way
in the diagram.
(b) Derive the two linear differential equations that govern the motion of the
system.
(c) Place the equations in the vector form of Eq. 10 – 3, indicating the
displacement vector x and the mass and stiffness matrices M and K.
Problem 10 – 2: Natural Frequencies and Natural Modes
This problem follows Problem 10 – 1.
(a) Find the two natural frequencies of the system.
(b) Find the two natural modes of the system. Normalize them so that the first
entry is 1.
