Problem 4.1
On my honor, I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid in doing this assignment.
Given

Mode Shape for system. Mode slope increases and crosses into the positive region
Spring-damper-body arrangement as shown. Two separate forces applied to masses.
γ
γ
Find
Find the eigenvector corresponding to the eigenvalue for the spring-mass-damper system on p.53-113. Plot and comment on this mode shape. Verify that the eigenvectors are orthogonal to each other
Solution
Eigenvalues are found
We find the eigenvectors from
Set
Eigenvectors are orthogonal to each other:
EDU>> x= [-.8507;-.5257]; EDU>> y= [-.5257;.8507]; EDU>> transpose(y)*x
ans = 0
