Course Objectives The objective of this course is to introduce the vibrations in mechanical systems, which are concerned with the oscillatory motions of bodies and the forces associated with them. The course provides with an understanding of the nature and behavior of dynamic engineering systems and the capability of applying the knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering to solve engineering vibration problems.
Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Develop mathematical models of dynamic systems with single degree of freedom
  • Obtain the analytical solution for the time response of the syste
  • Calculate natural frequency and mode shapes of vibrating mechanical systems
  • Propose solutions concerning vibration isolation and control in dynamic systems
  • Employ numerical techniques in anaylsis of dynamic system
Course Description The course covers vibrations of systems with single degree of freedom and multiple degrees of freedom, structural damping models, energy methods for vibration analysis, modal analysis, vibration of distributed-parameter system, vibration analysis of free or excited mechanical systems by finite-element method, and vibration isolation and active control of vibration in industrial applications.
