Dynamics (MEEM2700), Differential Equations (MA3520, MA3521, or MA3530)
Students who successfully complete
this course will have a good understanding of the modeling of vibratory motion
of mechanical systems using both single and multiple degree of freedom concepts.
They will have studied free and forced response of these systems. Students will
be able to design simple vibration isolation systems. They will understand the
concepts of natural frequencies and mode shapes and their significance in the
solution of multiple degree of freedom problems. Students will have an introduction
to the use of Laplace Transforms as a solution to differential equations of
motion. They will be able to complete basic system modeling tasks.
