The discretised version of the simplified view of a wing as shown in figure 10 is shown on theright side of the same figure. It is assumed that the mass of the wing is negligible comparedto m.

The spring constant has the following value:

Solution
The free-body diagram (FBD) of the mass is shown in figure 11.

The next step is to write down the equation(s) of motion (EOM) and constitutive equation(s)(CE). The latter are equations that relate forces to displacements.{
EOM my = Fs +mg (3.1)CE Fs = −ky (3.2)
Combining (3.1) and (3.2) yields an inhomogeneous differential equation:
my + ky = mg
To solve this equation, assume a particular solution yp and a homogeneous solution yh:
y = yp + yh = δstatic + δdynamic = δs + x

then:y = x
mx+ k (δs + x) = mg
−→ mx+ kx = mg − kδsFrom statics it is known that δs = mg
k which yields
mx+ kx = 0 (3.3)
x is expected to be harmonic, so assume a solution of the form
x = A sin (ωnt+ ϕ) (3.4)
where A is the amplitude of the oscillation and ϕ is the phase shift which describes howmuch the sine wave is shifted from x = 0 at t = 0, see figure 12. The standard solutionto the harmonic equation is x = eλt. How to get from eλt to A sin (ωnt+ ϕ) is shown inappendix A. The two unknowns A and ϕ can be found from the initial conditions. This isa second-order homogeneous differential equation, so two initial conditions are needed: theinitial displacement x0 and the initial velocity x0. Starting from (3.4), the initial conditionsbecome: {
x(0) = x0 = A sin(ϕ) (3.5)x(0) = x0 = ωnA cos(ϕ) (3.6)

Natural frequencies
Each mass-spring system oscillates at its own natural frequency when excited. This frequencyis ωn, and is calculated by substituting x = A sin (ωnt+ ϕ) into the homogeneous differentialequation (3.3):
−mω2nA sin (ωnt+ ϕ) + kA sin (ωnt+ ϕ) = 0

)The equation above is maximum for dFs
dt = 0:
−→ −kAωn cos (ωnt+ ϕ) = 0
Irrespective of the phase shift ϕ, the maximum stays the same, so:
−→ −kAωn cos (ωnt) = 0
which holds when cos (ωnt) = 0, so: ωnt = π2 + kπ, k ∈ Z
