Equivalent Electrical Model for Spring-Damper Circuit: Seeking Advice

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on creating an equivalent electrical model for a spring-damper circuit involving a pressure source and a mass-damper arrangement. The user seeks guidance on how to model this system electrically and requests resources for further information. Suggestions include consulting "Linear Systems" textbooks and online resources that explain the conversion of mechanical systems to electrical models. The typical approach involves formulating differential equations, converting them to the s-domain, and then using known electrical components to build the equivalent system. This process is essential for accurately representing the dynamics of the spring-damper circuit.

hi friends,
i am a student in NTU singapore. doing a project for my m.sc degree. i need a help in drawing an equivalent electrical model of the spring damper circuit.The circuit consists a pressure source and a mass damper arrangement as a piston. based on the pressure the piston moves down and an opposing damper action moves it up. how to get an euiqvalent electrical model of it. if u guys know any websites regarding this please do suggest me also u r ideas are needed.
thanks
krishna

Take a look for "Linear Systems" books at your library, or google for "linear systems", here are some interesting sites, http://www.sosmath.com/diffeq/system/linear/basicdef/basicdef.html" last link is about mechanical systems. Good Luck.P.S typical process of converting some system to another is to write diff. equations that describe the system. Convert to s-domain, since it is easier to compute different characteristics and then use known electrical components construct the equiv.el.system ;)

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...

Thread 'EMF (Electromagnetic Field) & EHS (Electromagnetic Hyper Sensitivity)'

Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
