The particular solution of Eq. of motion above is also expected to be
harmonic; we assume it in the form
𝑥𝑝 𝑡 = 𝑋 cos(𝜔𝑡 − ∅) -- (b)
-- (c)
-- (d)
-- (e)
-- (f)
By inserting the expressions of X and from Eqs. (e) and (f) into Eq. (b),
we obtain the particular solution of Eq. (a).
Figure 2 (a) shows typical plots of the forcing function and (steady-
state) response.
The various terms of Eq. (c) are shown vectorially in Fig. 2(b).
Dividing both the numerator and denominator of Eq. (e) by k and
making the following substitutions
we obtain
