SDOF harmonic response

 

Single DOF Steady-State Response due to Harmonic Excitation


 

 

Frequency of excitation near zero
 

The response is in phase with the excitation and the amplitude of response approaches the static response.

Frequency of excitation near resonance
The response is nearly 90 degrees out of phase with the excitation and the amplitude of response is large.
