Does anyone have a graphic example of underdamped vibration?

Vibration underdamped refers to a type of motion in a system in which the oscillations gradually decrease in amplitude over time. It occurs when there is some resistance or damping in the system, but the resistance is not strong enough to completely stop the oscillations.
Vibration underdamped and vibration overdamped are two types of damped oscillation that occur in a system. The main difference is in the rate at which the oscillations decrease. In vibration underdamped, the oscillations decrease slowly, while in vibration overdamped, the oscillations decrease more quickly.
The level of damping in a system can be affected by several factors, such as the material properties of the system, the type of damping present (viscous, hysteretic, etc.), and the presence of external forces or friction.
Vibration underdamped can be measured using various instruments, such as accelerometers, displacement sensors, and strain gauges. These instruments can measure the amplitude and frequency of the oscillations, which can then be used to determine the level of damping in the system.
Vibration underdamped can be observed in many real-world systems, such as a swinging pendulum, a bouncing basketball, or a car's suspension system. It can also occur in buildings during earthquakes or in bridges due to wind or traffic vibrations.
