Damped Time Period:

For the Damped Time Period Some initial Angular displacement was given to the compound pendulum
and time period is noted .

The Stiffness of Compound Pendulum Can be found by

Kt = 𝑚𝑔d
Kt=0.280 × 9.81 × 0.12
Kt= 0.349 Nm

Since it is a rotational system,

 𝜔n= √ kt
m

𝜔n= √ 0.349
0.280

𝜔n=1.1144 rad/sec

Damping ratio:

𝐶𝑐 = 2𝑚𝜔𝑛 (𝐶𝑟𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑐𝑎𝑙 𝐷𝑎𝑚𝑝𝑖𝑛𝑔)

𝐶𝑐=2 × 0.280 ×1.1144
𝐶𝑐= 0.6240

𝜁 2 = 1 – 0.39047

𝜁 = 0.78072 (𝑑𝑎𝑚𝑝𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜)

Since our 𝜁, daming ratio is less than 1 , this conform that our system is undamped.

𝐶 = ζ × Cc
𝐶=0.78072 × 0.6240

Equation of Motion:
The equation of motion is given as follows

EOM= 0.280 θ̈ + 0.4871θ̇ + 0.349θ = 0

The response of this equation can be plot on Matlab.

Matlab Code:
%User Define Function to it later on in response code

function thetadot= OEL(t,theta)

thetadot(1)=theta(2);
thetadot(2)=-1.7396*theta(2)-1.2464*theta(1);
thetadot=thetadot';
