Step response of a damped harmonic oscillator; curves are plotted for three values of μ = ω 1 = ω 0 √ 1 − ζ 2. Time is in units of the decay time τ = 1/(ζω 0). The value of the damping ratio ζ critically determines the behavior of the system. A damped harmonic oscillator can be:
In the classical approach, the Rabi problem can be represented by the solution to the driven damped harmonic oscillator with the electric part of the Lorentz force as the driving term: ¨ + ˙ + = (,),
It starts at undamped, proceeds to underdamped, then critically damped, then overdamped. Undamped Is the case where = corresponds to the undamped simple harmonic oscillator, and in that case the solution looks like (), as expected. This case is extremely rare in the natural world with the closest examples being cases where friction was ...
If a system initially rests at its equilibrium position, from where it is acted upon by a unit-impulse at the instance t=0, i.e., p(t) in the equation above is a Dirac delta function δ(t), () = | = =, then by solving the differential equation one can get a fundamental solution (known as a unit-impulse response function)
This plot corresponds to solutions of the complete Langevin equation for a lightly damped harmonic oscillator, obtained using the Euler–Maruyama method. The left panel shows the time evolution of the phase portrait at different temperatures. The right panel captures the corresponding equilibrium probability distributions.
Damped oscillation is a typical transient response, where the output value oscillates until finally reaching a steady-state value. In electrical engineering and mechanical engineering, a transient response is the response of a system to a change from an equilibrium or a steady state. The transient response is not necessarily tied to abrupt ...
Figure 2: A simple harmonic oscillator with small periodic damping term given by ¨ + ˙ + =, =, ˙ =; =.The numerical simulation of the original equation (blue solid line) is compared with averaging system (orange dashed line) and the crude averaged system (green dash-dotted line). The left plot displays the solution evolved in time and ...
controls the amount of non-linearity in the restoring force; if =, the Duffing equation describes a damped and driven simple harmonic oscillator, γ {\displaystyle \gamma } is the amplitude of the periodic driving force; if γ = 0 {\displaystyle \gamma =0} the system is without a driving force, and
