This unit includes vibration of single degree of freedom systems, free and forced vibration response. It also covers techniques of vibration isolation and vibration measurement. The instrumentation for vibration measurement is also introduced. Random vibration and frequency analysis are included for the practical analysis and processing of vibration signals.<br/><br/>The unit also introduces the theory of two degrees of freedom systems and absorbers; vibration of continuous systems; wave motions in structures; mode summation procedures; and noise and vibration control. Topics include two and multiple degree of freedom systems; transverse vibrations of strings; quasi-longitudinal... -- Course Website
