SDOF | Ansys Modeling | An Example of Free Damped Vibration

In the previous video, we explored two practical examples of underdamped single degrees of freedom, and we learned how to solve them. In this video, we will delve deeper into the first example and model it in Ansys. We will cover all the settings and adjustments required to model the system and accurately obtain reliable results. Furthermore, we will compare the results of the Ansys simulation with hand calculations to validate the model’s accuracy. This will equip us with a better understanding of the underdamped single degree of freedom systems and their behavior.
