1-DOF Mass-Spring-Damper System

Challenge 1: Explore the impact of different payloads (m) on system response

Modify the 1-DOF system and change the payload mass.



Challenge 2: Adjust the k

Add something to the system to change the k value.



Challenge 3: Adjust the damping effect

Adjust the system's damping effect and compute the damping coefficient. You are expected to plot the system's responses with various damping coefficients, such as those of an over-damped system. Hint: You can adjust the system's damping coefficient using the modules located within the red box in the figure below.
