Appendix A Preliminaries on Vectors and Calculus
CAVEAT LECTOR
In writing this primer, I have assumed that the reader has had courses in linear algebra and calculus. This being so, I have more often than not found that these topics have been forgotten. Here, I review some of the basics. But it is a terse review, and I strongly recommend that readers review their own class notes and other texts on these topics in order to fill the gaps in their knowledge.
Students who are able to differentiate vectors, and are familiar with the chain and product rules of calculus, have a distinct advantage in comprehending the material in this primer and in other courses. I have never been able to sufficiently emphasize this point to students at the beginning of an undergraduate dynamics course.
A.l Vector Notation
A fixed (right-handed) Cartesian basis for Euclidean three-space £3 is denoted by the set {Ex, Ey, Ez}· These three vectors are orthonormal (i.e., they each have a unit magnitude and are mutually perpendicular).
For any vector b, one has the representation
b = bxEx + byEy + bzEz ,
where bx, by, and bz are the Cartesian components of the vector b (cf. Figure A.l).
182 Appendix A. Preliminaries on Vectors and Calculus
FIGURE A.l. A vector b
A.2 Dot and Cross Products
The two most commonly used vector products are the dot and cross products. The dot product of any two vectors u and w is a scalar defined by
u · W = UxWx + UyWy + UzWz = llullllwll cos(/),
where "( is the angle subtended by u and w, and lib II denotes the norm (or magnitude) of a vector b:
Clearly, if two vectors are perpendicular to each other, then their dot product is zero.
One can use the dot product to define a unit vector n in the direction of any vector b:
b n = lfbii.
This formula is very useful in establishing expressions for friction forces and normal forces.
The cross product of any two vectors band cis a vector that is perpendicular to the plane they define:
This expression for the cross product can be expressed in another form involving the determinant of a matrix:
[Ex Ey
b X c = -c X b = det bx by Cx Cy
You should notice that if two vectors are parallel, then their cross product is the zero vector 0.
A.3 Differentiation of Vectors 183
A.3 Differentiation of Vectors
Given a vector u, suppose it is a function of time t: u = u(t). One can evaluate its derivative using the product rule:
du dux duy duz dEx dEy dEz dt = dt Ex+ dtEy + dt Ez + Uxdt + Uydt + Uzdt.
However, Ex, Ey, and Ez are constant vectors (i.e., they have constant magnitude and direction). Hence, their time derivatives are zero:
du = duxE duyE duzE dt dt X + dt y + dt z '
We can also use the product rule of calculus to show that
d du dw -(u·w) =- ·w+u·-dt dt dt ,
d du dw dt ( U X W) = dt X W + U X dt .
These results are obtained by representing the vectors u and w with respect to a Cartesian basis, then evaluating the left- and right-hand sides of both equations and showing their equality.
To differentiate any vector-valued function e(8(t)) with respect tot, we use the chain rule:
de_ d8 de_ d8 (dcxE dcyE dczE) dt - dt d8 - dt d8 x + d8 Y + d8 z ·
When differentiating it is important to distinguish a function and its value. For example, suppose 8 = t2 and the function f as a function of time t is f(t) = t. Then, f as a function of 8 is }(8) = 8, but j(8) = 82 -=!= }(8).
A.4 A Ubiquitous Example of Vector Differentiation
One of the main sets of vectors arising in any course on dynamics is { er, eo, ez}:
er cos(B)Ex + sin(B)Ey,
eo -sin( B)Ex + cos( B)Ey ,
ez Ez.
We also refer the reader to Figure A.2. In the above equations, B is a function of time.
Using the previous developments, you should be able to show the following results:
der . de=- sm(B)Ex + cos(B)Ey = e0 ,
184 Appendix A. Preliminaries on Vectors and Calculus
FIGURE A.2. The vectors er and e9
~~ =- cos(O)Ex- sin(O)Ey = -er,
A useful exercise is to evaluate these expressions and graphically represent them for a given O(t). For example, O(t) = 10t2 + 15t.
Finally, you should be able to show that
er X e9 = ez, ez X er = eiJ, eo X ez = er,
er·er=1, eo ·e9 = 1, ez · ez = 1,
er·e9=0, eo. ez = 0, er. ez = 0.
In other words, {en e9, ez} forms an orthonormal set of vectors. Furthermore, since ez · (er x eo)= 1, this set of vectors is also right-handed.
A.5 Ordinary Differential Equations
The main types of differential equations appearing in undergraduate dynamics courses are of the form ii = f(u), where the superposed double dot indicates the second derivative of u with respect to t. The general solution of this differential equation involves two constants: the initial conditions for u (to) = uo, and its velocity it (to) = ito. Often, one chooses time such that to= 0.
The most comprehensive source of mechanics problems that involve differential equations of the form ii = f(u) is Whittaker's classical work [67]. It should also be added that classical works in dynamics placed tremendous emphasis on obtaining analytical solutions to such equations. Recently, the engineering dynamics community has become increasingly aware of possible chaotic solutions. Consequently, the existence of analytical solutions is generally not anticipated. We refer the reader to Moon [40] and Strogatz [62] for further discussions on, and references to, this matter. Further perspectives can be gained by reading the books by Barrow-Green [3] and Diacu and Holmes [20] on Henri Poincare's seminal work on chaos, and Peterson's book [48] on chaos in the solar system.
A.5 Ordinary Differential Equations 185
A.5.1 The Planar Pendulum
One example of the above differential equation arises in the planar pendulum discussed in Chapter 2. Recall that the equation governing the motion of the pendulum was
mLO = -mg cos( 0) .
This equation is of the form discussed above with u = (} and f(u) = -gcos(u)jL. Here, f is a nonlinear function of u. Given the initial conditions(} (to) = 00 and iJ (to) = 00 , this differential equation can be solved analytically. The resulting solution involves special functions that are known as Jacobi's elliptic functions. 1 Alas, these functions are beyond the scope of an undergraduate dynamics class, so instead one normally is required to use the conservation of the total energy E of the particle to solve most posed problems involving this pendulum.
A.5.2 The Projectile Problem
A far easier example arises in the motion of a particle under the influence of a gravitational force -mgEy. There, the differential equations governing the motion of the particle are
mx = 0 , mjj = -mg, mz = 0.
Clearly, each of these three equations is of the form u = f(u). The general solution to the second of these equations is
Y (t) =Yo+ Yo (t- to) - ~ (t- to) 2 •
Here, y (to) =Yo andy (to) = y0 are the initial conditions. You should verify the solution for y(t) given above by first examining whether it satisfies the initial conditions and then seeing whether it satisfies the differential equation jj = -g. By setting g = 0 and changing variables from y to x and z, the solutions to the other two differential equations can be obtained.
A. 5. 3 The Harmonic Oscillator
The most common example of a differential equation in mechanical engineering is found from the harmonic oscillator. Here, a particle of mass m is attached by a linear spring of stiffness K to a fixed point. The variable x is chosen to measure both the displacement of the particle and the displacement of the spring from its unstretched state. The governing differential equation is
mx = -Kx.
1 A discussion of these functions, in addition to the analytical solution of the particle's motion, can be found in Lawden [36], for instance.
186 Appendix A. Preliminaries on Vectors and Calculus
This equation has the general solution
x(t) = xocos ( ~ (t- to)) +xo{:sin ( ~ (t- to)) ,
where x (to) = x0 and x (to) = x0 are the initial conditions.
A.5.4 A Particle in a Whirling Tube
The last example of interest arises in problems concerning a particle of mass m that is in motion in a smooth frictionless tube. The tube is being rotated in a horizontal plane with a constant angular speed n. The differential equation governing the radial motion of the particle is
This equation has the general solution
r(t) = r0 cosh (n (t- t0 )) +~sinh (n (t- t0 )) ,
where r (to) = r 0 and r (to) = r0 are the initial conditions.
