Question 1

What are localized modes?

  • Vibrations across an entire structure
  • Vibrations confined to specific portions of a structure
  • Rotational motions only

💡 Hint: They are not felt everywhere in the structure.

Question 2

True or False: Coupled modes occur when mass is evenly distributed.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider how mass affects motion.
