Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given a system with a natural frequency of 2 Hz and a damping ratio of 0.1, calculate the response amplitude at a frequency ratio of 1.5.

💡 Hint: Involve the dynamics of damped systems to estimate the response.

Challenge 2 Hard

Explore how the phase shift changes from 0° to 180° as frequency increases. Create a hypothetical scenario where the phase shift impacts vibration isolation in a given system.

💡 Hint: Think about how phase shifts would affect the reaction of a damper.
