الوصف: Common criteria used for measuring performance of vibrating systems have one thing in common: they do not depend on initial conditions of the system. In some cases it is assumed that the system has zero initial conditions, or some kind of averaging is used to get rid of initial conditions. The aim of this paper is to initiate rigorous study of the dependence of vibrating systems on initial conditions in the setting of optimal damping problems. We show that, based on the type of initial conditions, especially on the ratio of potential and kinetic energy of the initial conditions, the vibrating system will have quite different behavior and correspondingly the optimal damping coefficients will be quite different. More precisely, for single degree of freedom systems and the initial conditions with mostly potential energy, the optimal damping coefficient will be in the under-damped regime, while in the case of the predominant kinetic energy the optimal damping coefficient will be in the over-damped regime. In fact, in the case of pure kinetic initial energy, the optimal damping coefficient is $+\infty$! Qualitatively, we found the same behavior in multi degree of freedom systems with mass proportional damping. We also introduce a new method for determining the optimal damping of vibrating systems, which takes into account the peculiarities of initial conditions and the fact that, although in theory these systems asymptotically approach equilibrium and never reach it exactly, in nature and in experiments they effectively reach equilibrium in some finite time.
Comment: The main change compared to the previous version is the expansion of the conclusion section. The paper is published in Journal of Sound and Vibration
