- Source: Mass-spring-damper model
The mass-spring-damper model consists of discrete mass nodes distributed throughout an object and interconnected via a network of springs and dampers. This model is well-suited for modelling object with complex material properties such as nonlinearity and viscoelasticity.
Packages such as MATLAB may be used to run simulations of such models. As well as engineering simulation, these systems have applications in computer graphics and computer animation.
Derivation (Single Mass)
Deriving the equations of motion for this model is usually done by summing the forces on the mass (including any applied external forces

{\displaystyle F_{\text{external}})}

{\displaystyle \Sigma F=-kx-c{\dot {x}}+F_{\text{external}}=m{\ddot {x}}}
