(20%) Problem 3 An industrial machine has a mass of 430 kg and operates at a speed of 1500 rpm. It appears it has a rotating unbalance of moe-0.8 kg.m. A structural engineer suggested that the maximum transmitted force to the floor is 10000 N. The only isolation available are units, each of 7 x 106 N/m stiffness and a 0.1 damping ratio. a. What is the maximum allowable transmissibility of the force due to the rotating mass to the floor? b. What is the natural frequency associated with 'a' above? c. If a single isolator unit is used, what is the transmissibility? (5) (5) (5) d. How many isolator units are needed to reduce the force transmitted to the floor to the maximum allowable transmissibility? Which of the following two configurations in Figure 3 would you suggest? (5) B Figure 3 wW --C
