This document lists all the MATLAB and ANSYS codes used in each chapter, along with a short description of the purpose of each. This is the same information as in Appendix 1 of the book.

Downloading:

Matlab files were created using Matlab Version 5.3.1.29215a and Simulink Version 3.0.1. ANSYS files were created using ANSYS 5.6.1.

MATLAB codes have the suffix ".m" and the ANSYS codes have the suffix ".inp." Additional output files from previous runs are stored as ".grp" or other suffixes and will be used from time to time.

Coding format:

All the MATLAB code available from downloading and shown in the book starts over one tab, allowing comment lines to stand out. The code also includes a lot of blank lines for readability (my apologies to tight "c" code programmers). In most MATLAB code, critical definitions and calculations are only a few lines of code, while plotting and annotating are the bulk of the space. For this reason, some code listings in the book do not show all the plotting commands.

ANSYS eigenvalue/eigenvector results are converted to MATLAB input form using the following MATLAB extraction codes:

ext56ux.m - extracts the ANSYS UX degree of freedom
ext56uy.m - extracts the ANSYS UY degree of freedom
ext56uz.m - extracts the ANSYS UZ degree of freedom
ext56uxuy.m - extracts the ANSYS UX and UY degrees of freedom
ext56uxuz.m - extracts the ANSYS UX and UZ degrees of freedom
ext56uyuz.m - extracts the ANSYS UY and UZ degrees of freedom
ext56uxuyuz.m - extracts the ANSYS UX, UY and UZ degrees of freedom

The codes above all call a supporting MATLAB code ext56chk.m. All the codes should be installed in the same directory as the ANSYS output code which is to be extracted or should be installed in a directory which is in the MATLAB path. To use the extraction code, rename the ANSYS eigenvector output file to have a ".eig" extension and open MATLAB in the same directory. MATLAB will then open a window showing all the ".eig" files in the directory. Double-click on the file to extract and MATLAB will output a file with the "ext56xx.mat" name. If several files are to be extracted in the same directory, rename the "ext56xx.mat" name to a unique name with the ".mat" extension.

The ".mat" extracted MATLAB file contains the following information:

evr: the modal matrix, with rows consisting of degrees of freedom and each column representing a mode. The numbering of degrees of freedom is the same as the ANSYS listing, which is in ascending order of the selected node numbers. Where multiple directions are extracted, for instance UX and UY degrees of freedom, the degrees of freedom are listed in that order, first the UX degrees of freedom and then the UY degrees of freedom. The extracted modal matrix is of size: (total dof) x (modes).

freqvec: a vector listing the eigenvalues (resonant frequencies), in hz values. The size of the frequency vector is (modes) x (1).

node_numbers: a vector listing the node numbers for the extracted data, of size (dof) x (1). The extracted data can then be loaded and used to develop state space models of the system.

Chapter 2: Transfer Function Analysis

tdofpz3x3.m: Uses the "num/den" form of the transfer function, calculates and plots all nine pole/zero combinations for the nine different transfer functions for tdof model. It prompts for values of the two dampers, c1 and c2, where the default (hitting the "enter" key) values are set to zero to match the hand calculated values in (2.82). The "transfer function" forms of the transfer functions are then converted to "zpk - zero/pole/gain" form to enable graphical construction of frequency response in the next chapter.

Chapter 3: Frequency Response Analysis

The model is described in polynomial, transfer function and zpk forms. Magnitude and phase versus frequency are calculated using a scalar frequency "for loop," vector frequency, automatic bode plotting and bode with magnitude and frequency outputs.
