If the exciting force is assumed to have the form of a sine function with an amplitude of 1.6 KN and a frequency of 4.1 rad/sec, what is the least amount of damping (b) needed to keep the amplitude of motion to less than (or equal to) 1 m? What is the phase angle between the exciting force and the response? Using Matlab or Excel, plot the response with the found damping and show that the amplitude remains less than (or equal to) 1 m. A now spar buoy, 0.5 m diameter, is being designed to carry oceanographic instrumen- tation in the Indian Ocean. At this stage in the design process, the heave motion of the buoy is being modeled as a simple spring-mass-damper system. ‘The current design has an effective mass (a +m) of 650 kg. The design includes 200 kg of lead ballast in this mass. The restoring force is the change in buoyancy as the buoy heaves. The damping for a cylinder of this size is estimated to be 0.28 kN-sec/m. The wave-induced exciting force is assumed to have the form of a sine function with an amplitude of 1.65 kN and a frequency of 0.8 rad/sec. For this wave condition it is desired to keep the maximum, amplitude of the motion to less than 1 m. The only flexibility in the design is the 13 4. amount of lead ballast.
