Question 1
A 3-story building can be modeled as an MDOF system. Each floor has a mass of 1000 kg, and the stiffness varies with floor height. Formulate the equations of motion.
💡 Hint: Consider how the mass of the floors contributes to the overall mass matrix.
Question 2
How would you approach calculating the natural frequencies of a damped MDOF system? Include steps.
💡 Hint: Remember that damping alters the response characteristics.
