Let us now consider a simple oscillator with 1 degree of freedom and the same
mass m, with its characteristic pulsation ~ and damping ~ submitted to the
harmonic displacement
~ with a pulsation Z at its base (case of a structure
embedded at its base). The harmonic response of the oscillator is given by:
