๐ง๐ง + ๐๐ ๐ง๐ง = ๐๐(t)
There are several important types of problem associated Multi-
degree-of-freedom (MDOF) linear dynamic models of the form:
The first most important problem is to obtain natural frequencies and
mode shapes of free vibration i.e. undamped, unforced systems. This
involves solving the system model equation:
๐๐ ฬ
๐ง๐ง + ๐๐ ๐ง๐ง = 0
Free-vibration natural frequencies and mode shapes are of interest in
their own right but they also play a big part in forced vibration analysis.
2. Free Vibration
Given the importance of natural frequencies, historically,
many approximate methods were developed to obtain
free-vibration natural frequencies. Most of these methods
pre-date digital computers and are therefore largely
obsolete. One method however is still important today,
namely Rayleighโs method.
In this module we will examine:
1/ Free-vibration natural frequencies and mode shapes
2/ Forced vibration analysis for systems with proportional damping.
3. Rayleighโs method to obtain approximate
natural frequencies
Rayleighโs methods is a very powerful approximate method to
obtain natural frequencies of both discrete and continuous
systems. It also forms the basis of the Rayleigh-Ritz method which
is important in several areas and widely used in analysis (but we
will not study it in this module).
Rayleighโs principle
Rayleighโs method is based on Rayleighโs Principle. A corollary of
Rayleighโs Principle states that: โThe frequency of vibration of a
conservative system vibrating about an equilibrium position has a
โstationary valueโ in the neighbourhood of a natural mode. This
stationary value is in fact a minimum value in the neighbourhood of
the โfundamentalโ natural frequencyโ.
4. Rayleighโs method to obtain approximate
natural frequencies
So the natural frequency predicted using Rayleighโs method is at
a โturning pointโ (in some sense) when a correct vibration mode
shape is used.
One way to use this principle is to consider the kinetic energy T
and potential energy V for some vibration frequency ๐๐. The
principle then states that
๐๐
๐๐๐๐
๐๐ + ๐๐ = 0 (i.e. a โturning pointโ
condition). This condition ultimately gives an (approximate)
equation for the natural frequency ๐๐ in terms of an assumed
vibration shape.
An alternative route to the same equation is to equate the
maximum potential energy Vmax to the max kinetic energy Tmax.

If we assume that the dynamic system is vibrating harmonically
at frequency ๐๐ such that:
๐ง๐ง ๐ก๐ก = ฬ
๐ง๐ง๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
where ฬ
๐ง๐ง is an assumed shape of displacement, then:
๐๐ =

9. Rayleighโs method
โข For a SDOF system, Rayleigh's Quotient gives the result:
๐๐2 =
๐๐
๐๐
(which is exact).
โข Rayleighโs Quotient gives an upper bound estimate of ๐๐1 (i.e. the
lowest natural frequency, known as the โfundamentalโ). For any
assumed mode shape, the true natural frequency of the
fundamental mode is therefore always less than estimated, i.e.
the true fundamental frequency ๐๐1

say whether the estimates of ๐๐2 will be above or below the true ๐๐2).
13. FREE VIBRATION OF LINEAR MDOF
SYSTEMS
This section is concerned with exact calculation of natural
frequencies and mode shapes associated with:
๐๐ ฬ
๐๐ + ๐๐ ๐๐ = ๐๐
which represents free motion associated with an undamped system.
Free vibration characteristics are needed for: i) qualitative use in
assessing potentially problematic frequencies where resonance
could occur in lightly damped systems, and ii) of equal importance,
to obtain normal modes which can be used to solve MDOF systems
with forcing and proportional damping. Here the focus will be on
systems with a symmetric matrices for [m] and [k].
14. FREE VIBRATION OF LINEAR MDOF
SYSTEMS
Mathematically the problem to solve requires solution of the
eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a square (but not
necessarily symmetric) matrix. For a conservative system
given by:
both the eigenvalues and eigenvectors are real. So the focus
will be the interpretation of the eigenvalues and vectors. The
derivation of some important orthogonality properties which
the normal modes satisfy will be given in the next
presentation.
๐๐ ฬ
๐๐ + ๐๐ ๐๐ = ๐๐
15. FREE VIBRATION OF LINEAR MDOF
SYSTEMS
Eigenvalues and Eigen Vectors of Conservative Systems
To obtain the solution for model ๐๐ ฬ
๐๐ + ๐๐ ๐๐ = O we assume
the solution is harmonic of complex amplitude (i.e. sinusoidal or
co-sinusoidal) which allows phase shift between input and
output to be easily accounted for. Therefore assume:
๐๐ ๐ก๐ก = ฬ
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
where ฬ
๐๐ is a constant vector with complex components, which
on substitution into the model gives:
โ๐๐2
๐๐ ฬ
๐๐ + ๐๐ ฬ
๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
= 0
but since:
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ โ 0
gives:
โ๐๐2 ๐๐ ฬ
๐๐ + ๐๐ ฬ
๐๐ = 0
16. FREE VIBRATION OF LINEAR MDOF
SYSTEMS
Now pre-multiply โ๐๐2 ๐๐ ฬ
๐๐ + ๐๐ ฬ
๐๐ = 0 by ๐๐ โ1 (assuming it exists), we obtain:
๐ธ๐ธ โ ๐๐2
๐ผ๐ผ ฬ
๐๐ = 0
where ๐ธ๐ธ = ๐๐ โ1
๐๐ is known as the Stiffness Form of the Dynamic Matrix.
This is a standard eigenvalue problem in which (ascending order) eigenvalues
๐๐2 of the matrix E need to be found. Corresponding vectors ฬ
๐๐ which satisfy
the above equation at each of the eigenvalues also need to be found. The
eigenvalues and eigenvectors are interpreted as Natural Frequencies and
Modes Shapes of vibration respectively for free undamped vibration. These
eigenvectors are called Normal Modes.
Note: the standard eigenvalue problem associated with a square matrix A is
usually written in the form ๐ด๐ด โ ฮป๐ผ๐ผ ๐ฅ๐ฅ = 0.
17. FREE VIBRATION OF LINEAR MDOF
SYSTEMS
Now the solution process to obtain the eigenvalues and eigenvectors is
only possible if:
๐ธ๐ธ โ ๐๐2
๐ผ๐ผ = 0
i.e. a determinantal equation which leads to the frequency equation (i.e. a
polynomial in ๐๐2) the roots of which are the eigenvalues ( ๐๐1
2
, ๐๐2
2
, โฆ , ๐๐๐๐
2
.
There should be N roots. Now ๐๐1 is called the first mode frequency (or the
fundamental frequency), ๐๐2 is the 2nd mode frequency, and so on. If, for
each eigenvalue, we substitute back into: ๐ธ๐ธ โ ๐๐๐๐
2
ฮ ฬ
๐๐ = 0 then from this
equation, we can solve for an eigenvector which is a relative measure of
how the displacements are related, when the system is vibrating in the ith
mode, with frequency ๐๐๐๐. The eigenvector only tells us the relative shape of
the free vibration โ the amplitudes can be anything. Often, the amplitude of
displacement for the first component is conveniently set = 1; the vector
may also be normalised to magnitude = 1 (as explained shortly).
18. FREE VIBRATION OF LINEAR MDOF
SYSTEMS
Example: Computing the Natural Frequencies and Mode shapes:
A 3-DOF system (taken from Newland p125, involving simple hand calculation).
The system is a 3 x 3 system lumped mass model of equal mass m and equal
stiffness k as shown in the figure. The model is:
๐๐ ฬ
๐ง๐ง + ๐๐ ฬ
๐ง๐ง + ๐ ๐ ๐ง๐ง = 0
which has mass, stiffness, and damping matrices as follows:
๐๐ =
๐๐ 0 0
0 ๐๐ 0
0 0 ๐๐
๐๐ =
2๐๐ โ๐๐ 0
โ๐๐ 2๐๐ โ๐๐
0 โ๐๐ 2๐๐
๐๐ = [0]
Here we choose value ๐๐ = 1.0 kg and stiffness ๐๐ = 1.0 N/m for this system

To obtain the eigenvalues, we solve: ๐ธ๐ธ โ ๐๐2ฮ = 0 which leads to finding the roots
of a cubic polynomial in ๐๐2. The roots are:
๐๐1
2
= 0.5858 ๐๐1 = 0.7654 rad/sec
๐๐2
2
= 2.0000 ๐๐2 = 1.4142 rad/sec
๐๐3
2
= 3.4142 ๐๐3 = 1.8478 rad/sec
And for each ๐๐๐๐ we can obtain eigenvectors by setting the first component in the
vector ๐๐1 = 1 and solving the remaining linear equations. Following this procedure
gives the eigenvectors:
๐๐(1) =
1.0
2

๐๐(2) =
1.0
0.0
โ1.0
๐๐(3) =

โ 2
1.0
๐๐1 ๐๐2 ๐๐3
So the 1st element is arbitrarily normalised to 1.

The eigenvectors show the relative
amplitudes when the structure is vibrating
only at that corresponding natural frequency.
We can show these eigenvectors graphically in
the form of mode shapes, which give relative
vibrations for each of the modes.

Normalisation of Eigenvectors
It is often convenient to rescale the eigenvectors to different lengths. Sometimes
this might be (as in FE code) to make the largest amplitude 1 (as we have already
done). Another procedure is to make the eigenvectors have length 1 (as in Matlab)
i.e. to scale the eigenvectors as follows:
๐ข๐ข(1) =
๐๐(1)
๐๐ 1
, ๐ข๐ข(2) =
๐๐(2)
๐๐(2)
, ๐ข๐ข(3) =
๐๐(3)
๐๐(3)
, โฆ , ๐ข๐ข(๐๐) =
๐๐(๐๐)
๐๐(๐๐)
For the previous 3 x 3 system example, the unit-length normalised eigenvectors
are:

The Modal Matrix
It is common to arrange the Normalised eigenvectors into a special matrix as
follows:
U = ๐ข๐ข(1), ๐ข๐ข 2 , โฆ , ๐ข๐ข(๐๐)
For the 3 x 3 example, the modal matrix [U] is:

The modal matrix [U] is an important matrix which allows a system of
equations, under certain conditions, to be diagonalised. We will examine this
feature in the next lecture.
