The impulse excitation acting at time induces a response of the vibratory system
which is denoted ( ), Figure 4.8. It is evident that if < , ( ) = 0.

A large force of magnitude that is acting over a short period, can be written
as:

4.1.6 Use of Fourier Transforms
The Fourier transform F(f) of the excitation f(t) is first determined and the response
of the system to each Fourier component is determined separately.
The time response x(t) is obtained as the inverse Fourier transform of X(f) :
() = ( ()) = () 2 d = 2 d ()( )d =
= d 2() ( ) 2 ()d
() = d 2 ( ) 2 ()d

The spectrum of the output is obtained very simply by multiplying the input
spectrum by the frequency response function at each frequency.
The phase of response is the sum between the phases of frequency response
function and excitation.
= + (4.38)
Note. If the excitation applied at the time t=0 is the unit impulse (Dirac function)
then the response is depicted as h(t) and called the response function to the unit
impulse excitation. In this case the Eq. (4.37) becomes:
() = ((t)) () = ()
The response in the time domain is obtained applying the inverse Fourier transform
to X(f), that in this particular case is H(f):
() = 0, for 0 (4.40)
Hence, the response function to the unit impulse excitation and frequency
response function formed a pair of Fourier Transform functions.

The last equations reveals that a time analysis of the response x(t) is not able to
provide any direct information regarding the excitation f(t).

By using the Fourier series any periodic excitation can be decomposed in a sum
of many harmonic excitations whose frequencies are multiples of the
fundamental frequency (see chapter 2.3.4).
In the case of linear systems (linear springs and linear dampers) the response can
be obtained by the superposition the responses of individual harmonics.

Various shock time functions and the amplitude of their Fourier spectra are
presented in Figure 4.14.
The shocks spectra exemplified in Figure 4.14 point out two important
particularities:
In the expressions for F(t) in the Figure 4.14 all the expressions within the parallel
brackets approach unity as frequency f goes to zero. That means that at very low
frequencies the magnitude of the spectrum component is equal to the area
(amplitude-time integral) of the shock pulse, irrespective of the shock shape. It
means that the severity of the shock is determined by the area of the shock pulse
alone.

by Fourier transforms,(Broch 2.13):
Transient phenomena may last for one single period being called shock wave,
or several periods being an oscillating phenomenon. Transient phenomena are
termed also complex shocks. A Fourier spectrum function of a typical transient
excitation is presented in Figure 4.15. Particularities:
