I would like a link to a solved real world solution of a simple mass spring damper with an impulse force input.

All I want is to see a completed example of a critically or under dampened solution to an impulse force input with real numbers...

(not in reference to the imaginary solution component, im talking about start with x force for y seconds on a mass lbs spring k lbf/ft and damper c lbs*s/ft)

Is that to much to as for? It seems like it so that's why I am asking here. I'm not much of a high level math guy... I just need a tool to work with.

-Thanks

 
Really?
Yeah I graduated from Arizona State... It shouldn't be hard to imagine that I dont know how to do this.
 
I can't offer up much, but just so you don't peeve all the guys that can really help you:

Damped = reducing vibration
Dampened = getting something slightly wet
