Description

Introduction to mechanical vibration. Single degree-of-freedom spring-mass-damper systems; free and forced vibration; undamped/damped responses; vibration isolation; transmissibility. Harmonic analysis. Vibration measuring instruments. Linear vibrations of multi-degree-of-freedom systems; normal modes. Analysis of continuous systems. Wave equation. Transverse vibration of strings; longitudinal/torsional vibration of bars and rods; bending vibration of beams. Introduction to experimental vibration analysis using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) techniques. Typical sources of vibration in machines. Analysis of continuous systems via classical and finite element techniques. Experimental modal analysis. Torsional vibrations, including geared shaft systems, vibration testing.
