The meaning of eignvalues in vibration
when i solved simple example about 2 height stories when we have 2 degree of freedom I’m confusing about the meaning of result of eigenvectors and eigenvalues . This is the example i'm getting 4 eigenvalues and 4 eigen vectors . as following I didn’t understand we have 2 MDOF and we are...- Zouatine

What units for the wave function of a string?
hello , hope all of you are doing well , i have question about the unit of the function of waves of string fixed in both boundary , the function of waves is function of two variables x and t , so it's function describe the displacement in function of place and time , Ψ(x,t)=φ(x)*sin(ωt+α)...- Zouatine

Question about potential for this mechanical force problem
hi thank you for your comment! ,no it's not , solution of the exercise i already know it , i said i have to use Energy method , which mean the first step to solve it : Total Energy = Internal Energy + External Energy , Internal Energy is the energy in the Spring , and for External Energy is...- Zouatine

Minimizing the area of a channel in contact with water
My problem: In the solution,our teacher found, that the wet section is minimal if y=L/2 So Am: = L^2 /2; Pm: = 2L; So despite that I try with any value, I can not find a more minimal section, and that's not the case because if I try with y = L / 3 I find Am: L^2/3; Pm: (5/3)*L ; and these...- Zouatine

Solve Castigiliano Method for Continuous Beam Problem
thanx, so to find dM/df , I choose Ra so, 1- dM/dRa =-x 2- dM/dRa =-x and after that du/dRa=(1/EI)*∫(-x*Ra)*(-x) dx+(1/EI)*∫(-x*Ra+Rb*(x-L)-(qL/2)*(x-L)^2)*(-x) dx =0 with (0<x<L) and in second (L<x<2L). and I find Ra in this equation, just one more question about this...- Zouatine

Solve Castigiliano Method for Continuous Beam Problem
First thanks for your answer Sir , I made a mistake ∑F=0→ -Ra+Rb+Rc=ql - the positive sense for the moment is the clockwise. yes I know to get energy I have to integrate (M^2/(2EI)).dx , but it's complicated to integrate from 0 to L M^2/(2EI);dx with (M(x)=-Ra*x and from L to 2L M^2/(2EI) with...- Zouatine
