  12. In many cases it is however possible to simplify the formulatjon of the structural dynamic problem to ordinary difgerentjal equatjons. Introductjon Characteristjcs of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of the equatjons of motjon Formulatjon of a Dynamical Problem In a structural system the inertjal forces depend on the tjme derivatjves of displacements while the elastjc forces, equilibratjng the inertjal ones, depend on the spatjal derivatjves of the displacements. ... the natural statement of the problem is hence in terms of partjal difgerentjal equatjons .

In many cases it is however possible to simplify the formulatjon of the structural dynamic problem to ordinary difgerentjal equatjons.

  14. Under this assumptjon, the analytjcal problem is greatly simplifjed: 1 the inertjal forces are applied only at the lumped masses, 2 the only defmectjons that infmuence the inertjal forces are the defmectjons of the lumped masses, 3 using methods of statjc analysis we can determine those defmectjons, thus consentjng the formulatjon of the problem in terms of a set of ordinary difgerentjal equatjons, one for each relevant component of the inertjal forces. Introductjon Characteristjcs of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of the equatjons of motjon Lumped Masses In many structural problems we can say that the masses are concentrated in a discrete set of lumped masses (e.g., in a multj‐storey building most of the masses is concentrated at the level of the storeys’fmoors) .

  15. Introductjon Characteristjcs of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of the equatjons of motjon Lumped Masses In many structural problems we can say that the masses are concentrated in a discrete set of lumped masses (e.g., in a multj‐storey building most of the masses is concentrated at the level of the storeys’fmoors) .

  16. Of course, a contjnuous system has an infjnite number of degrees of freedom. Introductjon Characteristjcs of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of the equatjons of motjon Dynamic Degrees of Freedom The dynamic degrees of freedom (DDOF) in a discretjzed system are the displacements components of the lumped masses associated with the relevant components of the inertjal forces. If a lumped mass can be regarded as a point mass then at most 3 translatjonal DDOFs will suffjce to represent the associated inertjal force. On the contrary, if a lumped mass has a discrete volume its inertjal force depends also on its rotatjons (inertjal couples) and we need at most 6 DDOFs to represent the mass defmectjons and the inertjal force.

Of course, a contjnuous system has an infjnite number of degrees of freedom.

  18. When the masses are distributed we can simplify our problem expressing the defmectjons in terms of a linear combinatjon of assigned functjons of positjon, the coeffjcients of the linear combinatjon being the generalized coordinates (e..g., the defmectjons of a rectjlinear beam can be expressed in terms of a trigonometric series). Introductjon Characteristjcs of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of the equatjons of motjon Generalized Displacements The lumped mass procedure that we have outlined is efgectjve if a large proportjon of the total mass is concentrated in a few points (e.g., in a multj‐storey building one can consider a lumped mass for each storey).

  20. Even if the method of generalized coordinates has its beauty, we must recognize that for each difgerent problem we have to derive an ad hoc formulatjon, with an evident loss of generality. Introductjon Characteristjcs of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of the equatjons of motjon Generalized Displacements, cont. To fully describe a displacement fjeld, we need to combine an infjnity of linearly independent base functjons , but in practjce a good approximatjon can be achieved using just a small number of functjons and degrees of freedom.

  22. Introductjon Characteristjcs of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of the equatjons of motjon Finite Element Method The fjnite elements method (FEM) combines aspects of lumped mass and generalized coordinates methods, providing a simple and reliable method of analysis, that can be easily programmed on a digital computer.

  23. Introductjon Characteristjcs of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of the equatjons of motjon Finite Element Method In the FEM, the structure is subdivided in a number of non‐overlapping pieces, called the fjnite elements , delimited by common nodes . The FEM uses piecewise approximatjons (i.e., local to each element) to the fjeld of displacements. In each element the displacement fjeld is derived from the displacements of the nodes that surround each partjcular element, using interpolatjng functjons . The displacement, deformatjon and stress fjelds in each element, as well as the inertjal forces, can thus be expressed in terms of the unknown nodal displacements . The nodal displacements are the dynamical DOFs of the FEM model.

  24. Introductjon Characteristjcs of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of the equatjons of motjon Finite Element Method Some of the most prominent advantages of the FEM method are 1 The desired level of approximatjon can be achieved by further subdividing the structure. 2 The resultjng equatjons are only loosely coupled, leading to an easier computer solutjon. 3 For a partjcular type of fjnite element (e.g., beam, solid, etc) the procedure to derive the displacement fjeld and the element characteristjcs does not depend on the partjcular geometry of the elements, and can easily be implemented in a computer program.

  25. The mathematjcal expressions, ordinary or partjal difgerentjal equatjons, that we are going to write express the dynamic equilibrium of the structural system and are known as the Equatjons of Motjon (EOM). The solutjon of the EOM gives the requested displacements. The formulatjon of the EOM is the most important, ofuen the most diffjcult part of a dynamic analysis.

In many cases a limited number of DDOFs gives a suffjcient accuracy; further, the dynamic problem can be reduced to the determinatjon of the tjme‐histories of some selected component of the response.

  28. Introductjon Characteristjcs of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of the equatjons of motjon Writjng the EOM, cont. We have a choice of techniques to help us in writjng the EOM, namely: the D’Alembert Principle, the Principle of Virtual Displacements, the Variatjonal Approach.

  29. Introductjon Characteristjcs of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of the equatjons of motjon D’Alembert principle By Newton’s II law of motjon, for any partjcle the rate of change of momentum is equal to the external force, 𝑞(𝑢) = 𝑒 𝑒𝑢(𝑛𝑒 ⃗ 𝑣 ⃗ 𝑒𝑢 ), where ⃗ 𝑣(𝑢) is the partjcle displacement. In structural dynamics, we may regard the mass as a constant, and thus write 𝑞(𝑢) = 𝑛 ̈ ⃗ 𝑣, ⃗ where each operatjon of difgerentjatjon with respect to tjme is denoted with a dot. If we write 𝑞(𝑢) − 𝑛 ̈ ⃗ 𝑣 = 0 ⃗ and interpret the term −𝑛 ̈ 𝑣 as an Inertjal Force that contrasts the ⃗ acceleratjon of the partjcle, we have an equatjon of equilibrium for the partjcle.

  30. Introductjon Characteristjcs of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of the equatjons of motjon D’Alembert principle, cont. The concept that a mass develops an inertjal force opposing its acceleratjon is known as the D’Alembert principle, and using this principle we can write the EOM as a simple equatjon of equilibrium. The term ⃗ 𝑞(𝑢) must comprise each difgerent force actjng on the partjcle, including the reactjons of kinematjc or elastjc constraints, internal forces and external, autonomous forces. In many simple problems, D’Alembert principle is the most direct and convenient method for the formulatjon of the EOM .

  31. Introductjon Characteristjcs of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of the equatjons of motjon Principle of virtual displacements In a reasonably complex dynamic system, with e.g. artjculated rigid bodies and external/internal constraints, the direct formulatjon of the EOM using D’Alembert principle may result diffjcult. In these cases, applicatjon of the Principle of Virtual Displacements is very convenient, because the reactjve forces do not enter the equatjons of motjon, that are directly writuen in terms of the motjons compatjble with the restraints/constraints of the system.

  32. Introductjon Characteristjcs of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of the equatjons of motjon Principle of Virtual Displacements, cont. For example, considering an assemblage of rigid bodies, the pvd states that necessary and suffjcient conditjon for equilibrium is that, for every virtual displacement (i.e., any infjnitesimal displacement compatjble with the restraints) the total work done by all the external forces is zero. For an assemblage of rigid bodies, writjng the EOM requires 1 to identjfy all the external forces, comprising the inertjal forces, and to express their values in terms of the ddof ; 2 to compute the work done by these forces for difgerent virtual displacements, one for each ddof ; 3 to equate to zero all these work expressions. The pvd is partjcularly convenient also because we have only scalar equatjons, even if the forces and displacements are of vectorial nature.

  33. The method to be used in a partjcular problem is mainly a matuer of convenience (and, to some extent, of personal taste). Introductjon Characteristjcs of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of a Dynamical Problem Formulatjon of the equatjons of motjon Variatjonal approach Variatjonal approaches do not consider directly the forces actjng on the dynamic system, but are concerned with the variatjons of kinetjc and potentjal energy and lead, as well as the pvd , to a set of scalar equatjons. For example, the equatjon of motjon of a generical system can be derived in terms of the Lagrangian functjon , ℒ = 𝑈 − 𝑊 where 𝑈 and 𝑊 are, respectjvely, the kinetjc and the potentjal energy of the system expressed in terms of a vector ⃗ 𝑟 of indipendent coordinates 𝑒𝑢 � 𝜖𝑀 𝑒 � = 𝜖𝑀 , 𝑗 = 1, … , N . 𝜖 ̇ 𝑟 𝑗 𝜖𝑟 𝑗

It is diffjcult to integrate the above equatjon in the general case, but it’s easy when the motjon occurs in a small neighborhood of the equilibrium positjon. ̈ 1 DOF System Free vibratjons of a SDOF system Free vibratjons of a damped system 1 DOF System Structural dynamics is all about the motjon of a system in the neighborhood of a point of equilibrium. We’ll start by studying the most simple of systems, a single degree of freedom system, without external forces, subjected to a perturbatjon of the equilibrium. If our system has a constant mass 𝑛 and it’s subjected to a generical, non‐linear, internal force 𝐺 = 𝐺(𝑧, ̇ 𝑧) , where 𝑧 is the displacement and ̇ 𝑧 the velocity of the partjcle, the equatjon of motjon is 𝑧 = 1 𝑛𝐺(𝑧, ̇ 𝑧) = 𝑔(𝑧, ̇ 𝑧).

Given that for a free vibratjon problem 𝐵 1 , 𝐵 2 are given by the initjal conditjons, the nature of the solutjon depends on the sign of the real part of 𝑡 1 , 𝑡 2 , because 𝑡 𝑗 = 𝑠 𝑗 + 𝚥𝑟 𝑗 and exp (𝑡 𝑗 𝑢) = exp (𝚥𝑟 𝑗 𝑢) exp (𝑠 𝑗 𝑢). If one of the 𝑠 𝑗 > 0 , the response grows infjnitely over tjme, even for an infjnitesimal perturbatjon of the equilibrium, so that in this case we have an unstable equilibrium . If both 𝑠 𝑗 < 0 , the response decrease over tjme, so we have a stable equilibrium . Finally, if both 𝑠 𝑗 = 0 the roots 𝑡 𝑗 are purely imaginary and the response is harmonic with constant amplitude.
