Mass–Spring–Damper (δ and ω form) Summary
0.1 Notes
Regarding the second order–homogenous ODE
my + by + ky = 0 =⇒ y + 2δy + ω2y = 0
where km
= ω2 (ω denotes angular frequency) and bm
= 2δ (δ denotes damping) thenthe general solution for the position y(t) of the spring is
y(t) =
C1e(−δ+
√δ2−ω2)t + C2e
(−δ−√δ2−ω2)t when δ2 > ω2
e−δt(C1 cos(√ω2 − δ2t) + C2 sin(
√ω2 − δ2t) when δ2 < ω2
C1e−δt + C2te
−δt when δ2 = ω2.
The velocity v(t) of the spring is found by computing y(t), i.e. by differentiating y(t).The constants C1 and C2 are found by solving the system of equations y(0) = y0and v(0) = v0 where x0 and v0 are the given initial position and initial velocity,respectively, of the spring. You should be able to understand the form of the solutionsy(t) in each of the 3 cases based on the eigenvalues of the matrix
A =
(0 1−ω2 −2δ
).
The cases δ2 > ω2, δ2 < ω2, δ2 = ω2 correspond to the overdamped, underdamped,and critically damped motion, respectively, of the spring.
