Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
A skyscraper is built with a tuned mass damper to reduce oscillations during high winds. Calculate the effectiveness of the damper if a test shows reduced oscillation frequency from 0.5Hz to 0.1Hz. How does this affect structural safety?
💡 Hint: Consider how vibration frequency relates to structural responses.
Question 2
Analyze the consequences of failing to incorporate Coulomb damping during dynamic loading analysis of a bridge. Discuss how it might influence maintenance and design adjustments if neglected.
💡 Hint: Think about the role of friction in structural performance.
