ENGR 4300 - Vibrations

3 Credit(s)

Vibration of single and multiple degree of freedom and discrete mass systems. Natural frequencies and mode shapes for free, damped, and undamped systems. Forced vibrations; forcing functions; steady state and transient response. Application of matrix methods and numerical solutions. Analogies between unsteady behavior of mechanical, electrical and fluid systems. Introduction to vibration measurements and instrumentation. Applications; avoidance of vibration problems at the design stage of a new system. Spring

Prerequisite: ENGR 2140, ENGR 2030, and either MATH 2250 or MATH 2280
