COURSE DESCRIPTION

 

Basic concepts: Harmonic motion, free vibration, forced vibration, natural frequency, resonance, damping, elements of vibrating system. Single degree of freedom systems: free vibration, damped vibration, forced vibration. Two degree-of-freedom systems: free, forced, and damped systems. Introduction to Multi-degree-of-freedom, Introduction to vibration control.

 

 

INTENDED LEARNING OUTCOMES

After completing this course students should be able to:

 

·     Distinguish between free and forced vibration.

·     Determine the degrees of freedom.

·     Develop the mathematical model of a vibrating system.

·     Find the transient and steady state response of the vibrating system

·     Determine the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a vibrating system

·     Control the vibrations using passive a and a active methods

·     Design experiments to find the damping, natural frequencies, and some unknown parameters of the vibrating system
