6 a) Describe the effect of footing shape on vibratory response. [4]
b) Obtain the velocity of tup of a forge hammer before impact and that of the anvil after impact,
given the following data
Weight of tup and die = 15.5kN, Stroke of the tup = 900mm, Weight of anvil and frame =
342kN, Efficiency of drop = 0.90, Coefficient of restitution = 0.5, Steam pressure = 700kN/m2,
Area of piston = 0.129m2. Determine the amplitude of vibration of the foundation and anvil, if
the limiting natural frequency of the anvil is 253rad/s and the two natural frequency of the
combined system are 272rad/s and 54rad/s.
