Vibrations and Dynamic Systems

This course is an introduction to mechanical vibration and dynamic systems. Topics include: free vibration of a system, harmonic motion, damping, stiffness, system modeling and vibration measurements. Students will also become familiar with the response of various vibration systems subject to a range of inputs, the design implications of vibration, design of vibration suppression and vibration based machine condition monitoring.
