Abstract
SummaryIn control theory, stability is investigated by established techniques such as the root-locus method. The same techniques may be applied to the control equivalent of a mechanical system and will show the transient state of the system. Vector methods such as are used to solve vibration problems may also be extended to give transients.This note gives a vector representation of the transient vibration of a one degree of freedom system possessing inertia, elasticity and viscous damping. For the transient which is set up by a change in the steady vibration of the system, the initial amplitude and phase angle are readily found by vector methods. This information is sufficient to define the transient.
