Zero and root loci of disturbed spring-mass systems
Zero and root loci of disturbed spring-mass systems
We discuss analytical properties of a (possibly damped) disturbed chain of identical springs and masses. We particularly focus on a rank-one disturbance, such as a spring or damper, at or between the first and last masses. The displacements of the disturbed and undisturbed systems due to forcing at any mass are expressed in terms of Chebyshev polynomials. We present several remarkable properties in the location of the resonances (poles) and anti-resonances (zeros) of the displacements in the frequency domain. In particular, we show that there exists an elliptical region in the frequency-disturbance magnitude plane from which zeros are excluded.

Abstract
We discuss analytical properties of a (possibly damped) disturbed chain of identical springs and masses. We particularly focus on a rank-one disturbance, such as a spring or damper, at or between the first and last masses. The displacements of the disturbed and undisturbed systems due to forcing at any mass are expressed in terms of Chebyshev polynomials. We present several remarkable properties in the location of the resonances (poles) and anti-resonances (zeros) of the displacements in the frequency domain. In particular, we show that there exists an elliptical region in the frequency-disturbance magnitude plane from which zeros are excluded.
