Amplitude vs frequency curve

13 views (last 30 days)
Hey guys ! I would like your help to plot this frequency response function.
Just so you guys understand, I'm trying to plot the frequency response curve through ode45. I have a one degree of freedom system with its constants and I'm driving this system with a sinusoidal force that will do a frequency sweep.
I am sending the analytic result, as for my code attempt. The curve using the fft appears to be coherent, but the y axis has a very different unit.

IC2 = [x0;v0];

[time2,state_values2] = ode45(@h,tspan,IC2);
x = state_values2(:,1);

fx=fft(x,2^n);
fx=2*fx/length(x); % This operation is Adjusting the Magnitudes
f=(Fs/2^n)*(0:2^(n-1)-1);
plot(f,abs(fx(1:2^(n-1))),w,X,'-.k'), xlabel(' Frequency (Hz)'), ylabel(' X (m)');

Is the y-axis magnitude really that important? Both solutions identify the signal at 7 Hz. Isn't that the key result? Sorry, if I'm completely off base here; this view is just based on my limited experience with spectrum analyses. I also notice that you resized the magnitudes after applying the fft. If you do so before, the result is closer to what you are looking for. Good luck.
x = rescale(x,-1, 1);
fx=fft(x,2^n);

Thanks again for your help, but the y-axis is pretty important. I'm actually trying to plot the amplitude as a function of the excitation frequency. The analytical solution represents the amplitude as a function of the excitation frequency that this system will have, in steady state.
