• When the above systems are slightly disturbed from the equilibrium or rest position, they will oscillate with SHM

• A small displacement x from its equilibrium position sets up a restoring force F, which is proportional to x acting in a direction towards the equilibrium position

F = – sx (Hooke’s Law of Elasticity)

• s = proportional constant (called the stiffness)• negative sign shows that the force is acting against the direction

of increasing displacement and back towards the equilibrium position

Displacement in Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM)

• Displacement x can be represented by projection of a radius vector of constant length a rotates in anticlockwise direction with constant angular velocity

• Phase constant defines the position in the cycle of oscillation at time t = 0

• takes the values between 0 and 2 radian

• Two oscillators having the same frequency and amplitude may be consider in terms of their phase difference 1 - 2

• When two systems are diametrically opposed, the system are anti-phase:

phase difference 1 - 2 = n rad (n is odd integer)

• When two systems are exactly equal values of displacement, velocity and acceleration, the system are in phase:

phase difference 1 - 2 = 2n rad ( n is any integer)

Topic 1 Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM)UEEP1033 Oscillations and Waves

Example 1.1

a) What are the angular frequency, the frequency, the period , the amplitude of the resulting motion?

b) What is the amplitude of the oscillation?c) What is the maximum speed of the oscillating block, and

where is the block when it occurs?d) What is the amplitude of the maximum acceleration of the

block?e) What is the phase constant for the motion?f) What is the displacement function x(t) for the spring-block

system?

A block whose mass m is 680 g is fastened to a spring whose spring constant k is 65 N/m. The block is pulled a distance x = 11 cm from its equilibrium position at x = 0 on a frictionless surface and released from rest at t = 0.

The maximum speed occurs when the oscillating block is moving through the origin, i.e. at x = 0

Maximum speed = velocity amplitude vm = xm

vm = xm = (0.11 m) (9.78 rad/s) = 1.1 m/s

Energy of a SHM

• An exchange between kinetic and potential energy

• In an ideal case the total energy remains constant but this is never realized in practice

• If no energy is dissipated:

1. Etotal = KE + PE = KEmax = PEmax

2. Amplitude a remains constant

• When energy is lost the amplitude gradually decays

• Sinusoidal signals are characterised by their magnitude, their frequency and their phase

• If the frequency is fixed (e.g. at the frequency of the AC supply) and we are interested in only magnitude and phase

• In such cases we often use phasor diagrams which represent magnitude and phase within a single diagram

Some Basic Properties of Complex Numbers

e ±j = cos ± j sin

Real part: cos = Re (e j)

Imaginary part: sin = Im (e j)

x(t) = Xm cos (t + )

Example:

x(t) = Re(X e jt)

where

X is the phasor representation of the sinusoid v(t)

Phasor is a complex representation of the magnitude and phase of a sinusoid

To obtain the sinusoid corresponding to a given phasor X, multiply the phasor by the time factor e jwt and take the real part

X = Xm e j = Xm

= Re(Xm e j(t + )) = Re(Xm e j e jt)

x(t) = Re(X e jt) To obtain the sinusoid corresponding to a given phasor X, multiply the phasor by the time factor e jt and take the real part

x(t) = Xm cos (t + ) = Re(Xm e j(t + )) = Re(Xm e j e jt)

• To get the phasor corresponding to a sinusoid, we first express the sinusoid in the cosine form so that the sinusoid can be written as the real part of a complex number

• Then we take out the time factor e jwt, and whatever is left is the phasor corresponding to the sinusoid

As time increases, the sinor rotates on a circle of radius of Xm at an angular velocity in the counterclockwise direction

x(t) is the projection of the sinor Xejwt on the real axis

the value of sinor at time t = 0 is the phasor X of the sinusoid x(t)

X = Xm e j = Xm
