b) A platform of weight = 2000 N is supported by four equal columns. Experimentally it has been determined that a static force of 500 N applied horizontally to the platform, produces a displacement of 2.5 mm. Damping is taken as 5% of critical damping. Determine for this structure the following : 10 i) Undamped natural frequency. ii) Absolute damping co-efficient. iii) Logarithmic decrement. iv) No. of cycles and the time required for the amplitude of motion to be reduced from an initial value of 2.5 mm to 0.25 mm. 4. Explain the following with neat sketches :
