3.  MECHANICAL ROTATIONAL SYSTEMS
 The model of rotational mechanical systems can be obtained by
using three elements, moment of inertia [J] of mass, dash-pot with
rotational frictional coefficient [B] and torsional spring with
stiffness [K].
 The weight of the rotational mechanical system is represented by the
moment of inertia of the mass.
 The moment of inertia of the system or body is considered to be
concentrated at the centre of gravity of the body.
 The elastic deformation of the body can be represented by a spring
(torsional spring).
 The friction existing in rotational mechanical system can be
represented by the dash-pot.
 The dash-pot is a piston rotating inside a cylinder filled with
viscous fluid.

4.  When a torque is applied to a rotational mechanical system, it
is opposed by opposing torques due to moment of inertia,
friction and elasticity of the system.
 The torques acting on a rotational mechanical body are
governed by Newton s second law of motion for rotational
systems.
 It states that the sum of torques acting on a body is zero (or
Newton’s law states that the sum of applied torques is equal to
the sum of opposing torques on a body).

Consider an ideal frictional element dash-pot shown in fig. which has
negligible moment of inertia and elasticity.
 Let a torque be applied on it. The dashpot will be offer an opposing
torque which is proportional to the angular velocity of the body.

8.  When the dashpot has angular displacement at both the ends
as shown in fig, the opposing torque is proportional to
differential angular velocity.
