LEARNING OUTCOMES
The course is an optional specialization course and is offered by the CAD/CAM sector in the 8th semester of studies. The course aims to provide students with specialized knowledge about the vibrations of mechanical systems.
More specifically, it aims at the:
- recognition of the spectrum and the necessity of solving vibration problems in the mechanical systems
- understanding the process of systematically developing vibration models;
- acquire familiarity with the available methods and techniques for solving complex real-world vibration problems
Upon successful completion of the course the student will be able to:
- know how vibration measurement instruments work
- form and solve the differential equations of multi-degree-of-freedom vibrating systems
- solve the problem of eigenvalues and eigenmodes and perform modal analysis
- apply iterative methods to determine eigenvalues and eigenmodes
- solve problems of vibrating continuous media
- solve problems of unbalance, whirling shafts and effects of vibrations to humans
- design isolation devices and installations and use dynamic dampers
