Perfect for engineers and students analyzing dynamic system behavior and predicting resonance.
Formula:
Equation of Motion for Damped Forced Vibration:mẍ + cẋ + kx = F₀cos(ωt)
Where:
- m = Mass (kg)
- c = Damping Coefficient (N·s/m)
- k = Spring Stiffness (N/m)
- F₀ = Forcing Amplitude (N)
- ω = Forcing Frequency (rad/s)
- x = Displacement (m)
- ẋ = Velocity (m/s)
- ẍ = Acceleration (m/s²)
- t = Time (s)
