Example E3:
One of the wheels and leaf springs of an automobile, travelling over a rough road, is
shown in FIGURE-E3. For simplicity, all the wheels can be assumed to be identical and
the system can be idealized as shown in FIGURE E3. The automobile has a mass of m1
= 1000kg and the leaf springs have a total stiffness of k1 = 400kN/m. The wheels and
axles have a mass of m2 = 300kg and the tires have a stiffness of k2 = 500kN/m. If the
road surface varies sinusoidally with an amplitude of Y = 0.1m and a period of l = 6m find
the critical velocities of the automobile.

Example E4:
A turbine is connected to an electric generator through gears, as shown in
FIGURE-E4. The mass moments of inertia of the turbine, generator, gear 1, and
gear 2 are given, respectively, by 3000, 2000, 500, and 1000 kg-m2. Shafts 1 and
2 are made of steel and have diameters 30 cm and 10 cm and lengths 2 cm and
1.0 m, respectively. Find the natural frequencies of the system.

Example E5:
The transient vibrations of the drive line developed during the application of a
cone (friction) clutch lead to unpleasant noise. To reduce the noise, a flywheel
having a mass moment of inertia J2 is attached to the drive line through a
torsional spring kt2 and a viscous torsional damper ct2, as shown in FIGURE E5. If
the mass moment of inertia of the cone clutch is J1 and the stiffness and damping
constant of the drive line are given by kt1 and ct1, respectively, derive the equation
of motion for the system.
