Mechanical Vibrations

• Apply fundamental concepts of mechanical vibration, e.g., inertia, stiffness, and dissipation elements
• Construct mathematical models of physical mechanical systems
• Identify and explain vibration and measurement systems
• Solve free- and forced- response of single-degree-of-freedom systems
• Solve response of harmonically-excited single-degree-of-freedom systems
• Solve response of single-degree-of-freedom systems under general forcing conditions
• Solve response of harmonically-excited two-degree-of-freedom systems
• Solve response of harmonically-excited multi-degree-of-freedom systems
• Solve response of harmonically-excited continuous systems
• Solve vibration control problems
