How do you solve this problem
3.24: A machine resting on an elastic support can be modeled as a single-d
egree-of-freedom, spring-mass system arranged in the vertical direction. The ground is subject to a motion y(t) of the form illustrated in figure P3.24. The machine has a mass of 5000 kg , and the support has stiffness 1.5103Nm. Calculate the resulting vibration of the machine.

Solution:
Griven, m=5000kg,k=1.5103Nm,n=km2=0.548rads and that the ground motion is given by:
y(t)={2.5t,0t0.20.75-1.25t,0.2t0.60,t0.6
The equation of motion is
mx+k(x-y)=0
=>mx+kx=ky.
=>mx+kx=F(t)
The impulse response function computed from equn. 3.12 for an undamped system is
h(t-)=1mnsinn(t-)
This gives the solution by integrating
x(t)=1mn0tky()sinn(t-)d
=n0tf()sinn(t-)d.
for the interval 0t0.2 :
x(t)=n0t2.5sinn(t-)d
=>x(t)=2.5t-4.56sin0.548tmm;,0t0.2

for the interral 0.2t0.6
x(t)=n00.22.5sinn(t-)d
+n0.2t(0.75-1.25)sinn(t-)d
=0.75-0.5cos0.548(t-0.2)-1.25t+2.28sin0.548(t-0.2)
Combining this with the solution from the first interval Jields:
x(t)=0.75+1.25t-0.5cos0.548(t-0.2)
+6.48sin0.548(t-0.2)-4.56sin0.548(t-0.2)mm;
0.2t0.6
finally for the interval t0.6,
x(t)=n00.22.5tsinn(t-)d
+n0.20.6(0.75-1.25t)sinn(t-)d
+n0t(0)sinn(t-)d
=-0.5cos0.548(t-0.2)-2.28sin0.548(t-0.6)
+2.28sin0.548(t-0.2)
