Talk:Effective mass (spring–mass system)

The title of this page can lead to confusion with Effective Modal Mass, which relates to the Participation Factor of MDOF systems. I strongly believe that this page should be renamed to EQUIVALENT MASS. I don't expect to get any traffic on this though. Curran919 (talk) 11:53, 14 April 2016 (UTC)

I think that instead of using the symbol 'dv' for the velocity of the portion of the spring, some other symbol such as 'u' should be used, as this velocity is not an infinitesimal. 117.194.224.197 (talk) 20:03, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
