Setup State Space Equation
Problem Statement
Find an input function such that the lower mass, , is stationary in the steady state. Find the equation of motion for the upper mass, .
The use of one spring between the masses is just a simplification of a multi-spring system, so the possibility of being off-kilter is neglected and just the vertical forces are considered.
Initial Conditions and Values
Force Equations
Sum of the forces in the x direction yields
For
Since
And for
Since
Where is the input force
State Space Equation
The general form of the state equation is
Where denotes a matrix and denotes a vector.
Let , , , and be the state variables, then
