Assume 𝑥𝐶𝐹 𝑡 = 𝑥0 𝑒 𝜆𝑡 . Substituting in GDE, 𝑥0 𝑒 𝜆𝑡 [𝑚𝜆2 + 𝑐𝜆 + 𝑘] = 0
−𝑐± 𝑐 2 −4𝑘𝑚
For a non-trivial solution, 𝑚𝜆2 + 𝑐𝜆 + 𝑘 = 0 ⇒ 𝜆1,2 =
2𝑚
General Solution :
𝑐 𝑐2 −4𝑘𝑚 𝑐2 −4𝑘𝑚
− 𝑡 + 𝑡 − 𝑡
𝑥𝐶𝐹 𝑡 = 𝐴𝑒 𝜆1𝑡 + 𝐵𝑒 𝜆2𝑡 = 𝑒 2𝑚 𝐴𝑒 2𝑚 + 𝐵𝑒 2𝑚
−𝑐𝜔𝑒
where 𝛼 = tan−1 is the phase difference between the forcing and the response
𝑘−𝑚𝜔𝑒2
displacement.
The steady state displacement lags behind the forcing by a phase angle 𝛼 .
This phase lag is caused by the damping.
Final Solution (CF + PI)
𝑐 𝑐2 −4𝑘𝑚 𝑐2 −4𝑘𝑚

Final solution 𝑥 𝑡 = 𝑒 2𝑚 𝐴𝑒 2𝑚 + 𝐵𝑒 2𝑚 +

The CF oscillates at the damped natural frequency, while the PI oscillates at the
excitation frequency.
The CF decays with time, and the PI continues as the steady-state response.
