    This document outlines an experiment to determine the natural frequencies and mode shapes of a two degree of freedom pendulum system. The objectives are to observe the normal modes of oscillation and compare the experimental and theoretical natural frequencies. Equipment used includes a double pendulum system, tape measure, and stopwatch. Procedures involve calculating theoretical natural frequencies using equations of motion, measuring system parameters, and experimentally determining frequencies by setting the pendulums in motion in different modes and measuring oscillation cycles over time. The conclusion is that a distributed pendulum system has a higher natural frequency than an inverted double pendulum with distributed mass.

    I. OBJECTIVES

    1. To observe the normal modes of oscillation of a two degree of

    freedom system.

    2. To determine the natural frequencies and mode shapes of the

    system from solution of the Eigenvalue problem.

    3. To compare experimental and theoretical natural frequencies of the

    system.

    III. EQUIPMENT
    1. Double pendulum system
    2. Tape measure
    3. Stopwatch

    II. THEORY
    The two simple pendulums shown below are coupled together by means of

    a light spring which has a spring constant k. The spring is unstrained

    when the two pendulums are in the vertical position. Figure 1a represents

    the pendulums oscillating and Figure 1b is the corresponding free body

    diagram assuming θ2 > θ1.


    For a two degree of freedom system there are two coupled differential

    equations that govern the motion of the system. They are determined from

    application of Newton’s Second Law of Motion.


    IV. PROCEDURE
    1. The natural frequency calculations were based on an assumption
    that the value for the angle θ was small and that sin(θ) = θ. Determine
    the accuracy of this assumption by calculating sin(θ) and comparing
    it to θ and record the calculations .
    2. Measure the dimensions Ls, Lr, and Lw and calculate the mass values
    ms, mr, mw, and mh. The mass is determined by dividing the weight
    by the acceleration of gravity in inch units (386.4 in/s2). Record these
    values .
    3. Calculate the mass moment of Inertia Io from Equation 8.8 and the
    moments due to gravity forces from Equation 8.9.
    4. Calculate the two circular natural frequencies from Equation 8.7 and
    convert the result to Hz.
    5. Set the two pendulums in motion with both pendulums moving
    together in the same direction (mode 1). Experimentally determine
    the first natural frequency by measuring the time it takes for
    approximately ten cycles. Divide the number of cycles counted by
    the total time measured to obtain the frequency in Hz.
    6. Set the two pendulums in motion with both pendulums moving in
    opposite directions direction (mode 2). Experimentally determine
    the second natural frequency using the procedure above.
    conclusion:
    The results show that the natural frequency of a distributed pendulum system is
    larger than the IDPDM Inverted double pendulum with distributed mass.
