ME 7360 Theory of Vibration Assignment 3: Department of Mechanical Engineering

This document provides instructions for Assignment 3 of the Theory of Vibration course. It includes three problems: 1) Determine the peak displacement of an impulsively excited spring-mass system and the time corresponding to the peak response. 2) Show that the response to a unit step function is related to the impulsive response by a given equation. 3) Determine the response of a spring-mass system to a triangular pulse shown in a figure, given over three time intervals.

2. Show that the response to a unit step function , designated by g (t), is related to
the impulsive response h(t) by the equation h(t) = g_ (t):

3. For the triangular pulse shown in Figure 1, show that the response is given by:
