Structural Dynamics Structural Dynamics: Structural analysis under dynamic loading Engineering mechanics dealing with the behavior of structures subjected to dynamic loading (excitation). Dynamic means time varying Dynamic loads include, wind, waves, traffic, earthquakes, blasts, and people etc.. Any structure can be subject to dynamic loading. Dynamic analysis can be used to find dynamic displacements, time history, and modal analysis . Definitions DOS No Force Force No Motion Who Cares Statics Motion Kinematics Dynamics
Static load No change with time. A dynamic load changes with time. Dynamic analysis for simple structures can be carried out manually For complex structures finite element analysis can be used to calculate the mode shapes and frequencies. Dynamic Analysis Structural Dynamics DOS

CEng 6505 Vibration Analysis The outputs of a vibrating system, in general, depend upon the initial conditions, and external excitations. The vibration analysis of a physical system may be summarised by the four steps: 1. Mathematical Modelling of a Physical System 2. Formulation of Governing Equations 3. Mathematical Solution of the Governing Equations 4. Physical interpretation of the results
Structural Dynamics Type of Dynamic Analysis The choice of method depends upon Type of loading (how the loading is defined). If the time variation of loading is fully known, the analysis of the response of a structural system is known as a deterministic analysis. On the other hand, if the time variation is not completely known but can be defined in a statistical sense, then the analysis of response is known as a random analysis . DOS

Dynamic Loading CEng 6505 Deterministic / Non- deterministic (Random) Periodic Loading it repeats itself with a fixed period T, p(t) = p(t + T) holds for every t. Harmonic Loading it is modulated by a harmonic function, characterized by a frequency and a phase Non Periodic Loading here we see two sub-cases, the loading can be described in terms of analytical functions, e.g., p(t) = po exp(t), the loading is (a) experimentally measured and (b) is known only in a discrete set of instants; in this case, we say that we have a time-history.
Vibration is mechanical oscillation about a reference position . (Engineering) Vibration Definition Any motion that repeats itself after an interval of time (Scientific) Deals with the relationship between forces and oscillatory motion of mechanical systems (Engineering) Property Oscillation Vibration Motion To and Fro Any Direction Changes Movement Physical /Elastic DOS
Vibration is a result of dynamic force. Different parts of the structure will vibrate with various frequencies and amplitudes. Vibration causes fatigue and is often responsible for failure of structure. Vibration in structures Vibration DOS

Modeling Definition Real World The Model Analysis Information for decision making Physical ( Building) , Analogous (Drawing) Symbolic(Equation / Spreadsheet / Simulation) Deterministic/Probabilistic A model is a system that represents one or more facets of some other system. Modelling is the part of solution of an engineering problem that aims for producing its mathematical description (for a better understanding) DOS

Structures and spring-mass models Modeling Analytical Model DOS
Modeling The most demanding step in any dynamical analysis is the creation of a analytical model of the structure, which consists of: A list of the simplifying assumptions made in reducing the real structure to the analytical model A drawing that depict the analytical model A list of the design parameters (i.e., sizes, materials, etc.) Analytical models fall into two basic categories: continuous and discrete parameter models. Analytical Model- An Idealised Structure DOS
Mathematical Model-A Mathematical Description Modeling To analyse motion of a system it is necessary to develop a mathematical description that approximates its dynamic behaviour. This mathematical description is referred to as the mathematical model. Mathematical model can be obtained by applying the laws of mechanics to the adopted analytical model of a structure. DOS
Generalized Coordinates and DoF Modeling A set of coordinates or parameters, which uniquely describes the geometric position and/or orientation of a structure is called the generalized coordinates of the structure. The minimum number of independent generalized coordinates required to describe the state (geometry) of a structure is known as the degrees of freedom of that structures. DOS
Generalized Coordinates and DoF Modeling Dynamic degrees of freedom are a set of independent displacements / rotations that completely define the displaced position of the mass with respect to its initial position. A vertical cantilever with the mass concentrated at its tip can be idealised as a single degree of freedom (SDoF) system. The DoF is represented by the lateral displacement u of the mass. A multi-storey frame with the masses concentrated the storey levels can be idealised as a multi degree of freedom (MDoF) system. The degrees of freedom are the lateral displacements of the storey masses. The system has 4 dynamic degrees of freedom – displacements u1 – u4. DOS
