Since the transient part of the vibration will eventually vanish, let's now focus on the steady state solution. It is important to understand the conditions that can cause the maximum deformation in the steady state solution in order to avoid them.
Recal the solution as,
The solution can be found as,
Eq. 3.2.8
The steady state part is,
Eq. 3.2.3
Which can be written in the form,
Eq. 3.3.1
Where,
Eq. 3.3.2
Or,
Eq. 3.3.4
Where is the displacement of the amplitude of the excitation force if it is applied statically, so it is normally called the static displacement. And the phase angle (also calledd the phase shift) can be defined as,
Eq. 3.3.5
Where is the damping ratio,
Eq. 3.1.8
The ratio of the dynamic amplitude to the static response give rise to a very important quantity defined as the deformation response factor ,
Eq. 3.3.6
Observations
Response Deformation Factor is like a multiplier of the dynamic effect from the static effect.
When the frequency ratio , the forcing frequency is equal to the system frequency and system is said to be at resonance. The amplitude of the steady state solution tends to infinity, however, in real systems, failure will occur long before the system reaches very high amplitudes.
