Efficiency of the oscillator Stored energy in oscillator Work done by force per cycle
Another measure of response Q factor
Summary Damped forced oscillation • Effect of damping is negligible at low and high frequency regime • Effect of damping is large near resonance • Increase in width and shift in resonance frequency with • an increase in damping
