Question: When we studied SDOF systems subject to harmonic loading we found that the response due to cosine loading was: u ( t ) = P

When we studied SDOF systems subject to harmonic loading we found that the response due to cosine loading was:
u(t)=P0(k-2m)**(cos(t)-cos(n))
Starting from the equation of motion in modal coordinates GMrqr+GKrq=GFrcos(t) for a cosine loading with u(0)=u(0)={0}, show that the solution in modal coordinates is:
qr(t)=GFr(GKr-2GMr)**[cos(t)-cos(rt)]
When we studied SDOF systems subject to harmonic
