Spring damper - resonance, forcing, second order ODEs

[Issy]

Can anyone point me in the direction of a worksheet that may be used in teaching engineering students the standard topic of second order ODEs using a mass, spring, damper system? version14 Many thanks

In quicksheets check the point

Engineering Applications: Damped Harmonic Oscillation

in calculus and de.

Thanks for pointing this out, Alvaro. I was thinking of something a bit more extensive involving solving the ODE analytically and investigating the transient and steady state elements of the solution including resonance.

With regards,

Ian,
These files might help, I did them 4 or 5 years ago. You will probable want to manipulate a litte.

Many thanks for these, Wayne. They are very comprehensive and useful. Really great, thanks.

With best wishes,
