Question 1

What is the primary risk associated with resonance in SDOF systems?

  • Increased strength
  • Vibration decay
  • Excessive oscillations
  • Stability

💡 Hint: Think about the consequences of vibrations matching the natural frequency.

Question 2

True or False: The natural frequency of a system remains constant regardless of mass and stiffness.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Recall how the properties of a structure influence its dynamics.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A base-isolated building has a natural frequency of 2 Hz. An earthquake wave has a dominant frequency of 2 Hz. Analyze how this scenario might unfold and suggest preventative measures.

💡 Hint: Consider how to change the frequency or structural response.

Question 2

Evaluate a scenario where two adjacent buildings have different natural frequencies but face the same earthquake loading. Discuss the implications for structural integrity.

💡 Hint: Think about how varying building properties influence responses to external loads.
