117 Resonance

Let U00 and ν=ω, so that the input angular frequency equals the natural angular frequency. Then the general solution is

X=c1[cosνt-sinνt]+c2[sinνtνcosνt]+U02ν[tsinνtsinνt+tνcosνt]

where the solution oscillates unboundedly. Whereas the input is bounded, the output is unbounded. So the system is not BIBO stable.
