MAE 474 - Mechanical Vibrations

Studies free and forced vibration of damped and undamped single and multiple degree of freedom systems. Includes modeling of discrete and continuous mass systems; application to vibration measurement instruments; analysis of concepts of modal analysis; concepts of linear stability; application to rotating machinery, including the design of bearings and supports; discussion of static and dynamic balancing; influence coefficients; and least squares method.
