6.6.6.4 RESONANCE POINT
The elements of any mechanical system are what cause the different resonance frequencies. Each mechanical
element in a system will have its own natural resonant frequency that shows both an antiresonance [ ] and a
resonance [ ] point, where the mechanical element decouples from the system or is excited at its resonance
point. Each pair of nodes is related to a coupled element in the system. While a system can have multiple
resonant nodes, the first set of nodes (lowest frequency) is the most critical, as a bandwidth greater than the
frequency of the first antiresonance node cannot be achieved.
Example 1: Two pulleys with a belt. In this case it can be seen how the mechanical analysis shows two
resonance points due to the two pulleys coupled by a belt.
