12-3 Wuhan University of Technology 12.1 Normal coordinates In the preceding discussion of an arbitrary NDOF linear system, the displaced position was defined by the N components in the vector v. However, for the purpose of dynamicresponse analysis, it is often advantageous to express this position in terms of the freevibration mode shapes. These shapes constitute N independent displacement patterns, the amplitudes of which may serve as generalized coordinates to express any set of displacements. The mode shapes thus serve the same purpose as the trigonometric functions in a Fourier series, and they are used for the same reasons; because: (1) they possess orthogonality properties and (2) they are efficient in the sense that they usually can describe all N displacements with sufficient accuracy employing only a few shapes

12-10 Wuhan University of Technology 12.2 Uncoupled equations of motion - undamped The procedure described above can be used to obtain an independent SDOF equation for each mode of vibration of the undamped structure. Thus the use of the normal coordinates serves to transform the equations of motion from a set of N simultaneous differential equations, which are coupled by the offdiagonal terms in the mass and stiffness matrices, to a set of N independent normalcoordinate equations. The dynamic response therefore can be obtained by solving separately for the response of each normal (modal) coordinate and then superposing these by Eq. (123) to obtain the response in the original geometric coordinates. This procedure is called the modesuperposition method, or more precisely the mode displacement superposition method
