MME 425b “Mechanical Vibrations”
Experiment #1: Single Degree of Freedom System (Free and Forced Vibrations)
1. Objectives
The objective of this experiment is to help students understand basic concepts in underdamped free and
forced (harmonic excitation) vibrations of a single degree of freedom system (SDOFS). Students will estimate
the level of damping present in the system via logarithmic decrement method using free response, and
frequency response of forced vibration. After completing the experiment, you should be able to:
y Have an understanding of underdamped free vibration behaviour of a SDOFS.
y Have an understanding of forced vibration of a SDOFS subjected to harmonic excitation.
y Understand angular vibration measurements using a potentiometer and LabView-based data
acquisition system.
2. Principles and background
The single degree of freedom system in this exercise involves a rotating imbalanced force that provides a
single frequency harmonic excitation. The schematic of the lumped parameter system is shown in Figure 1.

The equation governing the angular motion of the beam about the center of rotation, O, can be derived as:
I oθ + cld2θ + klk2θ = me eω 2lm cos ω t .
Here the mass moment of inertia,
I o about the center, can be expressed as:
1
I o = I beam + I mass = ml 2 + mmlm2 ,

Part A- Prediction of Damping using Logarithmic Decrement – Free Response
(i) Observe type of vibration:
Initiate a free vibratory motion to the system by pressing the beam down and releasing. You will notice
that the system is vibrating. What type of vibration can you observe?
(ii) Find the undamped natural frequency,
ωn :
Remove the damper from the system and initiate vibration as above case (i). Then, count the number of
cycles of vibration in a certain time using stopwatch. What is the undamped system natural frequency?
(iii) Estimate damping ratio, ζ:
Reinstall the damper to the system and produce an underdamped free response plot shown as Figure 2
using LabView. Measure the values of two amplitudes (Xi and Xi+n) and the number of cycles, n. Draw
the underdamped free response plot manually on the Logbook, and mark the selected amplitude (Xi and
Xi+n) on the plot. Then, determine the damping ratio ζ

Measure the values of following parameters using stick ruler:
- distance of spring about the center of rotation,

- distance of damper about the center of rotation,
- distance of mass about the center of rotation,
ld ,
lm .
Other values of parameters are given in the Log book. Estimate the spring stiffness, k , using the stick
ruler and provided weighs, and Calculate the mass moment of inertia, I o , using equation (2). Then,
calculate the undamped system natural frequency using equation (5). Compare your answer with the
value predicted using free response (ii).
(v) Estimate damping ratio, ζ:
We can estimate the damping ratio using steady state response amplitude at a known frequency of
excitation. To do this, consider an excitation frequency (frequencies are suggested in the Logbook for
two cases) and take measurement of the response angular amplitude Θ at the considered frequency.

Considering the gear ratio (gear ratio = motor frequency/disk frequency = 3.23) and potentiometer gain
(360 degree = 5 V), estimate the damping ratio,
ς using equation (5).
(vi) Predict the damping ratio based on the ratio of amplitudes taken at two frequencies (one close to the
resonance and one high frequency value). Under these conditions, the useful ratio can be derived from
equation (5) as:
Θ β =high
Θ β =1
= 2ζ
