✦ Synopsis

In this paper the free vibrations of a linear, single degree of freedom oscillator with a (periodically and stepwise changing) time-varying mass have been studied. Not only solutions of the oscillator equation have been constructed, but also stability diagrams for the free vibrations have been presented for various parameter values.

In this paper the forced vibrations of a linear, single degree of freedom oscillator (sdofo) with a time-varying mass will be studied. The forced vibrations are due to small masses which are periodically hitting and leaving the oscillator with different velocities. Since these small masses stay for
