Subject:

Description:

This course is divided into two intimately related topics that are most relevant to machine design, namely, vibrations and dynamic balancing. Students will learn about various sources of vibrations; analyze single and multiple degrees of freedom vibration; perform analytical and experimental analysis leading to natural frequencies and associated mode shapes; analyze free and forced as well as damped and undamped vibration; and study various vibration isolation methodologies relevant to machines. Finally, concepts, such as, static and dynamic unbalance and dynamic balancing of linkages, machines and engines will be elucidated.
