Single degree of freedom systems
• When one variable can describe the
motion of a structure or a system of
bodies, then we may call the system a 1-D
system or a single degree of freedom
(SDOF) system. e.g. x(t), q(t) Z(t), y(x).

Natural Frequency of Oscillation
• In the previously obtained solution:
x(t )  ASint   
• The frequency of oscillation is 
• It depends only on the characteristics of the
oscillating system. That is why it is called the
natural frequency of oscillation

Damping
• Damping is some form of friction!
• In solids, friction between molecules result
in damping
• In fluids, viscosity is the form of damping
that is most observed
• In this course, we will use the viscous
damping model; i.e. damping proportional
to velocity
