girder as shown to provide flexibility during earthquakes. The beam

elasticity E and a yield strength

σ Using the block-and-spring
system shown, it is desired to simulate the deflection of end C of the
rod as the axial force P is gradually applied and removed, that is, the
deflection of points C and
C′ should be the same for all values of P.
Denoting by
μ the coefficient of friction between the block and the
horizontal surface, derive an expression for (a) the required mass m
of the block, (b) the required constant k of the spring.
