Millennium Bridge Vibration

Lack of consideration of dynamic loads and vibration
caused this to relatively new bridge to vibrate wildly


Modeling and Degrees of Freedom
The bridge has many degrees of freedom, we will start with one
and work towards many.

Lack of consideration of dynamic loads and vibration

College of Engineering
The goal of this course is to understand such 4/43

Example 1.1.1 The Pendulum
•  Sketch the structure or
part of interest
•  Write down all the
forces and make a
“free body diagram”
•  Use Newton’s Law
and/or Euler’s Law to
find the equations of
motion
∑M 0 = J 0α , J 0 = ml 2


The problem is one dimensional,
hence a scalar equation results

This is a second order, nonlinear ordinary differential equation

We can linearise the equation by using the approximation sin θ ≈ θ

acceleration (mass).

Initial Conditions
If a system is vibrating then we must assume that something
must have (in the past) transferred energy into to the system
and caused it to move. For example the mass could have
been:
• moved a distance x0 and then released at t = 0 (i.e. given
Potential energy) or
• given an initial velocity v0 (i.e. given some kinetic energy) or
• Some combination of the two above cases
From our earlier solution we know that:

x0 = x(0) = Asin(ω n 0 + φ ) = Asin(φ )

v0 = x (0) = ω n A cos(ω n 0 + φ ) = ω n A cos(φ )

A note on arctangents
•  Note that calculating arctangent from a
calculator requires some attention. First, all
machines work in radians.

•  The argument atan(-/+) is in a different quadrant
then atan(+/-), and usual machine calculations
will return an arctangent in between -π/2 and
+π/2, reading only the atan(-) for these two
different cases.

Does gravity matter in spring

Let Δ be the deflection caused by
hanging a mass on a spring
(Δ = x1-x0 in the figure)

part or as a complex exponential

Equivalent Solutions to 2nd order
Differential Equations (see Window 1.4)

All of the following solutions are equivalent:

x (t ) = A sin(ωnt + φ ) Called the magnitude and phase form

x (t ) = A1 sin ωnt + A2 cos ωnt Sometimes called the Cartesian form

jωn t − jωn t
x (t ) = a1e + a2 e Called the polar form

The relationships between A and ϕ, A1 and A2, and a1 and a2
can be found in Window 1.4 of the course text, page 17.

Derivation of the solution
Substitute x(t) = ae λt into m + kx = 0 ⇒
x
mλ 2 ae λt + kae λt = 0 ⇒

mλ + k = 0 ⇒
k k
λ = ± − =± j = ±ω n j ⇒
m m
x(t) = a1eωn jt and x(t) = a2 e−ωn jt ⇒
x(t) = a1eωn jt + a2 e−ωn jt (1.18)

This approach will be used again for more complicated problems

Is frequency always positive?
From the preceding analysis, λ = + ωn then
ωn jt −ωn jt
x (t ) = a1e + a2 e
Using the Euler relations* for trigonometric functions, the
above solution can be written as (recall Window 1.4)

x (t ) = A sin (ωnt + φ ) (1.19)
It is in this form that we identify as the natural frequency
ωn and this is positive, because the + sign being used up
in the transformation from exponentials to the sine
function.

The Decibel or dB scale
It is often useful to use a logarithmic scale to plot vibration
levels (or noise levels). One such scale is called the decibel or
dB scale. The dB scale is always relative to some reference
value x0. It is define as:
2
⎛ x ⎞ ⎛ x ⎞
dB = 10 log10 ⎜ ⎟ = 20 log10 ⎜ ⎟ (1.22)
⎝ x0 ⎠ ⎝ x0 ⎠
For example: if an acceleration value was 19.6m/s2 then relative
to 1g (or 9.8m/s2) the level would be 6dB,
2
⎛ 19.6 ⎞
10 log10 ⎜ ⎟ = 20 log10 ( 2 ) = 6 dB
⎝ 9.8 ⎠
Or for Example 1.2.1: The Acceleration Magnitude
College of Engineering is 20log10(17.8)=25dB relative to 1g. 29/43

1.3 Viscous Damping
All real systems dissipate energy when they vibrate. To
account for this we must consider damping. The most simple
form of damping (from a mathematical point of view) is called
viscous damping. A viscous damper (or dashpot) produces a
force that is proportional to velocity.
Mostly a mathematically motivated form, allowing
a solution to the resulting equations of motion that predicts
reasonable (observed) amounts of energy dissipation.

To solve this for of the equation it is useful to assume a
solution of the form (again):

x(t) = ae

Solution to DE with damping
included (dates to 1743 by Euler)
The velocity and acceleration can then be calculated as:
x(t) = λ ae λt

 = λ 2 ae λt
x(t)

If this is substituted into the equation of motion we get:

aeλt (mλ 2 + cλ + k) = 0 (1.26)
Divide equation by m, substitute for natural frequency and
assume a non-trivial solution
