Magnification Factor Formula Elements

Variables
Functions
Magnification Factor
Magnification Factor is the value of deflection under the dynamic force divided by the deflection under the static type of force.
Symbol: D
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Damping Coefficient
Damping coefficient is a material property that indicates whether a material will bounce back or return energy to a system.
Symbol: c
Measurement: Damping CoefficientUnit: Ns/m
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Angular Velocity
The Angular Velocity refers to how fast an object rotates or revolves relative to another point, i.e. how fast the angular position or orientation of an object changes with time.
Symbol: ω
Measurement: Angular VelocityUnit: rad/s
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Stiffness of Spring
Stiffness of Spring is a measure of the resistance offered by an elastic body to deformation. every object in this universe has some stiffness.
Symbol: k
Measurement: Surface TensionUnit: N/m
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Natural Circular Frequency
Natural Circular Frequency is a scalar measure of rotation rate.
Symbol: ωn
Measurement: Angular VelocityUnit: rad/s
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
sqrt
A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number.
Syntax: sqrt(Number)

How to Evaluate Magnification Factor?

Magnification Factor evaluator uses Magnification Factor = 1/(sqrt((Damping Coefficient*Angular Velocity/Stiffness of Spring)^2+(1-(Angular Velocity/Natural Circular Frequency)^2)^2)) to evaluate the Magnification Factor, Magnification Factor formula is defined as a measure of the amplification of a system's response to an input, specifically in mechanical systems, where it quantifies the ratio of the output amplitude to the input amplitude, providing insight into the system's dynamic behavior and stability. Magnification Factor is denoted by D symbol.
