Below is an image of the Calculations worksheet for the sample problem. (This image was created
using the pulldown beside the Copy button in the Clipboard section of the Ribbon's Home tab.)
This spreadsheet implements the analysis method described in the book "Design of Structures and
Foundations for Vibrating Machines" by S.Arya, M.O'Neill & G.Pincus, Gulf Publishing Company,
Houston, 1979. In particular it emulates Table 6-2 of that book.
For brief instructions, see the "Documentation" worksheet.

Since the exciting horizontal force is (in general) applied at a different level from the horizontal sliding
resistance, there is a possibility that the rocking and sliding modes will not be independent as assumed
above, but will be coupled. The following calculations investigate the consequences of coupling.
The method used for the natural frequencies comes from the book "Foundations for Machines: Analysis
and Design", by S.Prakash and V.Puri, John Wiley & Sons, 1988, in its chapter 6.
The method used for the damped response analysis comes from the book "Foundation Analysis and Design",
by J.E.Bowles, McGraw-Hill, 1977, in its section 20-8.
