Chapter 3, Problem 3.13P

Consider the cart shown in Figure P3.13. Suppose we model the wheels as solid disks. Then the wheel inertia is given by I w = m w R 2 2 / 2 . How small must the wheel mass m w be relative to the cart body mass m c so that the two wheels increase the equivalent mass m e by no more than 10%?

An aluminum rod of length L = 1m has mass density ρ = 2700 kgm3 andYoung’s modulus E = 70GPa. The rod is fixed at both ends. The exactnatural eigenfrequencies of the rod are ωexactn =πnLqEρfor n=1,2,3,. . . .1. What is the minimum number of linear elements necessary todetermine the fundamental frequency ω1 of the system? Discretizethe rod in that many elements of equal length, assemble the globalsystem of equations KU = ω2MU, and find the fundamentalfrequency ω1. Compute the relative error e1 = (ω1 − ωexact1)/ωexact1.Sketch the fundamental mode of vibration.
