Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a three-story building modeled as an MDOF system. Assume it exhibits non-classical damping. Describe how you would analyze the system's dynamic response. What methods would you use?

💡 Hint: Think about advanced techniques discussed in our session.

Question 2

You have a damped MDOF system with mass and stiffness matrices defined. Write and solve the equations of motion using classical damping and compare it with a non-classical approach.

💡 Hint: Focus on the difference in treatment between classical and non-classical systems.
