Conservation of Energy

In physics, the rule of the conservation of energy states that energy doesn’t disappear from the atmosphere; instead, it changes its form from one type to another. Energy is one of the most important physical quantities in nature, and it cannot be create…

Chapter 16.1, Problem 16.2P

A 60-lb uniform thin panel is placed in a truck with end A resting on a rough horizontal surface and end B supported by a smooth vertical surface. Knowing that the panel remains in the position shown, determine (a) the maximum allowable acceleration of the truck, (b) the corresponding minimum required coefficient of static friction at end A.

An undamped single-degree-of-freedom system is subjected to dynamic excitation as shown in Figure 1.• System properties: m = 1, c = 0, k = (6π)2.• Force excitation: p(t) = posin(ωt) where po = 9 and ω = 2π.• Initial conditions: u(t = 0) = 0 and ̇u(t = 0) = 0.Please, complete Parts (a) through (d) using any computational tool of your preference. The preferred toolis MATLAB. Print and turn in a single pdf file that will include your code/calculations and your plots.(a) Generate the solution using a linear interpolation of the load over each time step (note that hereyou can use the undamped coefficients). Plot the displacement response for the first 4 seconds andcompare to the exact closed form solution. Repeat using the following time step sizes, ∆t = 0.01,0.05, 0.15, 0.20 seconds. Include the closed form solution and the solutions for different ∆t values in asingle plot. Please, provide your observations by comparing the closed form solution with the solutionsderived using the four…

Assume multiple single degree of freedom systems with natural periods T ∈ [0.05, 2.00] seconds with in-crement of period dT = 0.05 seconds. Assume three cases of damping ratio: Case (A) ξ = 0%; Case (B)ξ = 2%; Case (C) ξ = 5%. The systems are initially at rest. Thus, the initial conditions are u(t = 0) = 0 anḋu(t = 0) = 0. The systems are subjected to the base acceleration that was provided in the ElCentro.txt file(i.e., first column). For the systems in Case (A), Case (B), and Case (C) and for each natural period computethe peak acceleration, peak velocity, and peak displacement responses to the given base excitation. Please,use the Newmark method for β = 1/4 (average acceleration) to compute the responses. Create threeplots with three lines in each plot. The first plot will have the peak accelerations in y-axis and the naturalperiod of the system in x-axis. The second plot will have the peak velocities in y-axis and the natural periodof the system in x-axis. The third plot will have…
