What is a Mechanical Vibration?
Scientific Definition
Mechanical vibration is the oscillatory motion of dynamic systems.
Mechanical vibration deals with the relationship between forces
acting on the mechanical system and the oscillatory motion
of mechanical system about a point within the system.
Engineering Definition
- Objectives of Vibration:
A dynamic system is a combination of matter
which possesses mass and whose parts are
capable of relative motion. All bodies possessing
mass and elasticity are capable of vibration. The
mass is inherent of the body and the elasticity is
due to the relative motion of the parts of the
body.
The system may be very simple or complex. It
may in the form of a structure, a machine or its
components or a group of machines.
The oscillatory motion may be objectionable or
necessary for performing a task.
The objective of the designer is to control the
vibration when it is objectionable and to
enhance the vibration when it is useful.
Objectionable vibration in the machine may
cause loosening of the parts or its
malfunctioning or even its failure.
Shakers in foundries and vibrators in testing
machines require vibration.
Operation of many instruments depend upon
the proper control of the vibration
characteristics of the devices.
The primary objective of our study is to analyze
oscillatory motion of dynamic systems and the
forces associated with the motion.
The ultimate goal is to determine its effect on
the performance and safety of the system under
consideration.
- Examples of Vibration Motion:
Examples of Vibratory Motions
To illustrate different types of vibratory motion let us
consider the spring-mass systems shown below.
Fig. Vibratory Motions at Different Frequencies
When the motion is maintained by the restoring
forces only, the vibration is described as free
vibration. When a periodic force is applied to the
system, the motion is described as forced vibration.
When the frictional dissipation of energy is
neglected, the motion is said to be undamped.
Actually, all vibrations are damped to some degree.
Fig. Free and Forced Vibration Systems
Fig. Free Damped and Undamped Vibratory Motions
Once the system is set into motion, it will tend
to vibrate at its natural frequency as well as to
follow the frequency of excitation.
If the system possesses damping, the part of the
motion not sustained by the sinusoidal
excitation will eventually die out. This is
transient motion, which is under free vibrations.
The motion sustained by the sinusoidal function
is called the steady-state-response. Hence this
response must be at the excitation frequency
regardless of the initial conditions.
Figure: Sinusoidal Vibratory Motions
Natural Frequency
Fig. illustrates the undamped free vibration. Since the spring
is initially deformed from equilibrium, the corresponding
potential energy is stored in the spring.
Through the exchange of the potential and kinetic energies
between the spring and the mass, the system oscillates
periodically at its natural frequency about its static
equilibrium position.
This motion is simple harmonic motion. Since the system is
conservative, the amplitude of vibration will not diminish
from cycle to cycle.
Hence the natural frequency describes the rate of exchange
between two types of energy storage elements, namely, the
mass and the spring.
Damped Natural Frequency
Fig. shows a mass-spring system with damping. In
addition to the spring force, the mass is acted upon
by the damping force, which opposes its motion.
1. If the damping is light, the system is said to be
under-damped and the motion is oscillatory. Here
the amplitude decreases with each subsequent cycle
of oscillation.
2. If the damping is heavy, the motion is non-
oscillatory and the system is said to be over-damped.
- Elements of Vibratory Systems:
Three major elements comprise the vibratory
systems; these are:
- Inertia element (Mass, kg )
- Elastic element (Spring, N/m) and
- Energy-dissipative element (Damper, Ns/m)
The mass oscillates or vibrates while the spring
stores energy temporarily during vibration and
damper consumes or dissipates the energy.
The mass is assumed to be a rigid body. It
executes the vibrations and can gain or lose
kinetic energy.
The spring possesses elasticity. A spring force
exists if the spring is deformed. The work
done in deforming a spring is transformed
into potential energy, that is, the strain
energy stored in the spring.
The damper has neither mass nor elasticity.
Damping force exists only if there is a
relative motion between the two ends of the
damper. The work or energy input to a
damper is converted into heat.
- Examples of Vibration Systems:
There are in general three types of vibration
systems:
1. Axial or longitudinal
2. Lateral or bending
3. Torsional or rotational
Next figures show the three types of vibration.

Simple harmonic Motion, Vector
Representation of Harmonic
Motion:
Definition of Simple Harmonic Motion SHM:
It is the simplest form of periodic motion.
It is also the basis for more complex analysis
using Fourier analysis.
Steady-state analysis can be greatly simplified
using vectors to represent harmonic motion.
A simple harmonic motion is a reciprocating
motion. It can be represented by circular
functions, sine or cosine, or their combination in
complex cases.
Simple Harmonic Motion SHM
Fig. Periodic Motion and Time Period
Time Period τ in seconds
Frequency f in Hz
Amplitude X in mm
From previous figures, the oscillatory
motion has the following parameters:
Fig. Vibration at a Natural Frequency
Time interval required for a system to complete
a full cycle of the motion is the time period of the
vibration.
Number of cycles per unit time defines the
frequency of the vibrations.
Maximum displacement of the system from the
equilibrium position is the amplitude of the
vibration.
Definition of the Parameters:
The time period τ =
$
s/Cycles.
The Frequency ˦ =
#
=
$
Cycles/s or Hz.
ω is called the circular frequency in radians/s.
If ˲(ˮ) represents the displacement of a mass,
then velocity and acceleration are the first and
second time derivative of the displacement,
Displacement: ˲ ˮ = IIJJωˮ
Velocity: ˲Ӕ ˮ = −ωIJ˩Jωˮ
Acceleration: ˲ӕ ˮ = −ω$
IIJJωˮ
A Sine or Cosine functions or their
combinations can be used to represent simple
harmonic motions.
Examples:
˲ ˮ = I1J˩Jωˮ + I2IJJωˮ
= I(
I1
I
J˩Jωˮ +
I2
I
IJJωˮ)
= I(J˩JωˮIJJαˮ + IJJωˮJ˩Jαˮ)
= IJ˩J(ωˮ + α)
Vector Representation of SHM:
A harmonic motion can be represented by a
rotating vector ʹ of constant amplitude I at a
constant angular velocity ω.
The displacement of P from centre O along x-
axis is ˛˜ = ˲ ˮ = IIJJωˮ.
Fig. Harmonic Motion represented by a Rotating Vector
Similarly, the displacement of P from centre O
along y-axis is ˛˝ = ˳ ˮ = IJ˩Jωˮ.
Naming the x-axis as real part and the y-axis as the
imaginary one, the rotating vector ʹ is represented
by the equation:
ʹ = IIJJωˮ + ˪IJ˩Jωˮ = I˥ .
I represents the length of the vector and ˪ = −1.
The relations between the displacement, velocity
and acceleration are again as below:
Displacement: ˲ ˮ = IIJJωˮ
Velocity: ˲Ӕ ˮ = −ωIJ˩Jωˮ
Acceleration: ˲ӕ ˮ = −ω$

Machines & Man?
Question ?
Machines with repetitive disturbing forces such
as engines, motors, turbines etc. often have
vibration problems.
Serious vibration problems may cause damage,
malfunction or even failure of the structure or
machine itself or machine parts their selves.
Vibration causes interruption of production,
reduction of working lives of machines, loss of
power and energy.
Vibration cause also uncomfortable feeling or
noise, which can damage human ears
permanently.
- Dynamic System Modelling:
The vibration is very small so that sin θ ≈ θ.
The structure is linear system whose dynamics
may be represented by a set of linear, second
order, differential equations.
The structure obeys Maxwell’s theorem.
The structure can be considered as time
invariant; the coefficients in the linear, second
order, differential equations are constants with
respect to time.
