Structural Dynamics Formulas Overview

This document provides formulas and concepts related to structural dynamics and vibration analysis for both single degree of freedom (SDOF) and multi-degree of freedom (MDOF) systems. For SDOF systems, it outlines the governing differential equations for free, damped response as well as forced vibration under harmonic and arbitrary excitation. It also defines terms like damping ratio and damped frequency. For MDOF systems, it presents the governing equations for free vibration, and response to ground motion or applied forces using modal analysis.
