The graph relating acceleration to displacement

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The relationship between acceleration and displacement is represented by a loop, known as a hysteresis loop. The size of the loop depends on the input frequency or ID (Excitation frequency, Input frequency, or Driving frequency). For low IDs, the loops are larger, indicating a greater nonlinear response. For high IDs, the loops are smaller, indicating a more linear response. Therefore, the graph relating acceleration to displacement has larger loops for low IDs than high IDs.
