Present the equations of motion of the attached two-degree-of-freedom system in the main coordinate system. Determine a value for α such that the equations of motion can be solved in the principal coordinate system. If it is assumed that the type of damping is Rayleigh damping (10% proportional to mass and the rest proportional to stiffness), then determine the relative damping coefficient and damping constants for the structure.
