Canonical form of Damped SHM
the spontaneous frequency
the damping coefficient
Quality factor: the number of radians of phase elapsed as the amplitude falls to
the system is critically damped when
Light damping
- damped oscillation frequency
Heavy damping
Critical damping
- Notice the corresponding solution forms of three different cases
Driven harmonic oscillation
The response function (1. obtain the harmonic x solution; 2. divide solution by F). can naturally devise the velocity and acceleration response function
resonance frequency (differentiate to get)
