BASIC DYNAMICS 4
In this section we introduce the basics of Dynamic Analysis by considering aSingle Degree of Freedom (SDOF) problem
Initially a free vibration model is used to describe the natural frequency
Damping is then introduced and the concept of critical damping and theundamped solution is shown
Finally a Forcing function is applied and the response of the SDOF is explored interms of time dependency and frequency dependency and compared to theterms found in the equations of motion

The displacement is indeterminate in an Eigenvalue Analysis
No loading or initial conditions are applied
The mathematical method balances Inertia energy and Stiffnessenergy for a particular unique (or eigen) value solution
It is finding a characteristic of the system, not a response
The displacement is an arbitrary scaling, the NEi Nastran solution it is
(1.0)
We will see later that this is an eigenvector

DAMPED FREE VIBRATION SDOF
If viscous damping is assumed, the equation of motion becomes:
There are 3 types of solution to this, defined as:
Critically Damped
Overdamped
Underdamped
A swing door with a dashpot closing mechanism is a good analogy
If the door oscillates through the closed position it is underdamped
If it creeps slowly to the closed position it is overdamped.
If it closes in the minimum possible time, with no overswing, it is
critically damped.

To explore the response of our spring mass system to theforcing function we will use a Frequency ResponseAnalysis
This method allows us to compare the response of thespring with the input force applied to the spring over a wide
range of input frequencies It is more convenient in this case than running multiple
Transient Analyses, each with different input frequencies
We will apply the input load as 1 unit of force over afrequency range from .1 Hz to 5 Hz
Damping is 1% of Critical

There are many important factors in setting up a Frequency Response Analysisand we will cover these in a later section
For now, note the response is as predicted by the equation of motion
At 0 Hz result is p/k
At 1.59 Hz result is p/k factored by Dynamic Magnification
At 5 Hz result is low and becoming insignificant
The Phase change is shown here:
In phase up to 1.59 Hz
Out of phase180 Degrees after 1 .59 Hz

We now try a Transient analysis with a unit force applied to the spring at 1.59
Hz
Again damping of 1% Critical is applied
The result is shown on the next page:
The response takes around 32 seconds to reach a steady-state solution
After this time the displacement response magnitude stays constant at .45
units
The theoretical value of .5 is not reached due to numerical inaccuracy (seelater) and the difficulty of hitting the sharp peak

If we plot input and output at the steady-state period, we can see that the input signal isnot very accurate hence our problem finding the exact magnification factor
We can also see the phasing between input and output is around 90 degrees as expected

Remember, we defined the contribution of each mode as the modaldisplacement:
So
In the 2 DOF case
For the beam example, it may be possible to represent the response toloading in the XZ plane using the first three modes. The assumption is thatthe higher modes do not contribute significantly to the solution.
This is a significant advantage of modal methods, the response of thebeam, {x(t)}, has 222 physical degrees of freedom.
But we can represent the response by 3 Modal DOF, i
EXTREME CARE must be taken when assuming which modes contribute andwe will discuss this more in later sections.

Possible Problems with 3 modes only: If we have loading in the XY plane, the response will be represented by first
order bending and will therefore be limited in accuracy
If the XZ loading excites at multiple inputs as shown, then the first twomodes may not represent the response, and the third order mode may be
needed

For every DOF in which a structure is not totally constrained, itallows a Rigid Body Mode (stress-free mode) or a mechanism.
There should be six Rigid Body Modes.
The natural frequency of each Rigid Body Mode should be zero.
A later section is devoted to discussion of Rigid Body Modes

and normal modes of structures To assess the dynamic characteristics of a structure.
For example, if a structure is going to be subject to rotational or cyclicloading input, to avoid excessive vibrations, it might be necessary tosee if the frequency of the input is close to one of the naturalfrequencies of the structure.
Passing blade frequencies of a helicopter
Rotational speed of an automobile wheel
Rotational speed of a lathe
Vortex shedding or flutter of bridge and deck structures
Assess the possible dynamic amplification of the loads. If a structure is loaded near a natural frequency with an input that
matches that frequency then the dynamic amplification can besignificant for a lightly damped structure, perhaps being an order ofmagnitude higher than an equivalent static loading
Dynamic response of aircraft structure due to landing loadscan exceed static loading
Dynamic response of Tacoma Narrows bridge, runawayloading

For Frequency response, calculate the range of frequencies ofinterest

In the case of the beam, we assumed the second order mode wassufficient. The mesh is adequate for this.
However, if the higher order mode shown is required, then the mesh isinadequate.

BASIC DYNAMICS 92
Element Type The type of element chosen is very important in dynamic
analysis, in that it can control the stiffness representationand to a lesser extent the mass distribution of the structure.
Examples of poor choices are: Using TET4 elements to model solid structures. If they are used
in relatively thin regions that have plate or shell the results canbe very poor. TET10 or preferably HEXA are a better choice.
If RBE2 is used instead of an RBE3 on a flexible structure such
as a satellite platform then it may over stiffen the structure andinfluence the frequencies badly.
In the next workshop a classic structure is analyzed usingdifferent elements.

A poor stiffness representation can influence a structurebadly and a poor mass representation can also have thesame effect.
The mass values may be wrong due to user error. The
values can be checked in the Nastran output file
There are two forms of mass representation in Nastran lumped and coupled. Differences may occur in the analysisdepending on which is selected.

Is the joint flexibility correct? For example a corner of a formed sheet structure will have an
internal radius which increases its torsional stiffness. It may beimportant in this case to include the torsional stiffness via RODelement.
If bolts are used to connect components together then thebolt stiffness may play an important role in dynamic analysis.

When we idealize a structure we always make assumptions aboutthe connection to an adjacent structure or to ground.
Hence if a panel is surrounded on all sides by reinforcing structure, dowe represent that as fully built in, simply supported, or model anequivalent edge stiffness using CELAS or CBUSH elements?
A particularly difficult case is where the connectivity is ill-defined,such as the push-fit and snap connectors of a typical car dashboardassembly.
Remember there is no such thing in nature as an infinitely stiffconnection or structure.
The mode shapes of the tower shown on the next slide aresignificantly changed by the fact that the connection to ground isnot rigid. Errors will occur if it is assumed fully fixed.
