Synopsis
System dynamic response is related to its dynamic
characteristics, namely, natural frequencies, mode shapes and
damping. The course deals with the theory of multiple degree of
freedom systems (damped and undamped) and solution
techniques encompassing analytical, numerical and
measurements methods. These include Frequency Response
Function (FRF) Modal analysis, FRF Operating Deflection Shape
analysis and Finite Element Modal analysis.
Combined measurement and computational techniques to study
vibration problems in industries is discussed in the case studies.
