Forced Response with Coulomb Damping part of Teaching Computation with MATLAB:MATLAB Workshop October 2021:Activities
Students determine and plot the response of a vibrating system under a harmonic excitation force, in the presence of Coulomb Damping. The assignment requires students to solve a 2nd order differential equation ...

Frequency Plots for Base Excitation part of Teaching Computation with MATLAB:MATLAB Workshop 2024:Activities
Students generate transmissibility vs. frequency ratio plots for a spring-mass-damper system with base excitation with contours for five different damping ratios.
