Figure 13: A damped mass-spring system
Consider the mass-damper-spring system as shown in figure 13. It has the following equationof motion:
mx+ cx+ kx = 0To solve for the motion x(t), substitute x = xeλt:
m�xλ2��eλt + c�xλ��e
λt + k�x��eλt = 0
−→ mλ2 + cλ+ k = 0
Solve this with the quadratic formula:
λ = −c±√c2 − 4mk
2mThe discriminant c2 − 4mk makes the difference whether λ is real or complex. The criticalfactor is when it is zero:
c2 = 4mk −→ ccrit = 2√mk
Define the damping ratio ζ:ζ = c
ccrit= c
2√mk

x+ 2ζωnx+ ω2nx = 0

The amplitude A and phaseshift ϕ can be found from the initial conditions x(0) = x0 andx(0) = x0:
x(0) = A sinϕ = x0 −→ A = x0sin(ϕ) (4.2)
From equation 4.1 the velocity can be deduced:
x = −ζωnAe−ζωnt sin(ωdt+ ϕ) +Ae−ζωntωd cos(ωdt+ ϕ)
So the initial velocity condition can be written as:
x0 = −ζωnA sin(ϕ) +Aωd cos(ϕ) (4.3)
Substituting equation 4.2 in this equation yields:
x0 = −ζωnx0 + x0ωdtan(ϕ)
Hence:−→ ϕ = arctan

4-2 Case 2: Overdamped motion
Now: ζ > 1In this case the roots of the equation of motion are real:
λ1 = −ζωn − ωn√ζ2 − 1
λ2 = −ζωn + ωn
√ζ2 − 1
and the displacement becomes non-oscillatory (see also figure 16):

4-3 Case 3: Critically damped motion
For this type of motion: ζ = 1Now the roots are equal:
λ1 = λ2 = −ωnFor repeated roots, the solution takes the form:
x = (a1 + a2t)e−ωnt
where
a1 = x0
a2 = x0 + ωnx0
