About Course

The course covers basic concepts of vibrations and its applications. Study of vibrations is important to mechanical, aeronautical and civil engineers. It is necessary for a design engineer to have a sound knowledge of vibrations. The emphasis is on application to common engineering situations. The main aim of the course is to prepare the participants to tackle complex and frontier technological problems in vibrations. Thus, participants will gain theoretical knowledge of mechanical vibration and its practical applications with the ability to solve dynamics problems using finite element analysis software. The participants will also be trained to identify and rectify the errors while solving dynamics problems and interpret the results from the analysis. The course is composed of approximately two-half theory and one-half use of commercial software in solving problems.

What Will You Learn?

  • Understand theoretical principles of vibration and the knowledge of vibration analysis techniques for the practical problems.
  • Understand the importance of vibrations in the design of parts/component subjected to dynamics.
  • Apply Newton’s equation of motion and energy methods to solve most relevant problems in engineering domain
  • Choose among various numerical methods for approximate solutions for complex vibration problems.
  • Apply finite element method and demonstrate the software for solving a dynamics and vibration problems.
  • Ability to identify and rectify the errors while solving dynamics and vibration problems
