function vtb5_3(mu,beta)
%VTB5_3 Normalized displacement of the primary mass for absorber design.
% VTB5_3(mu,beta) plots the normalized displacement of the primary mass
% for a vibration absorber design.  The variable mu is defined
% as the absorber mass divided by the primary mass (ma/m).  The 
% ratio of natural frequencies (wa/wp) is defined as beta.
