MEEN 602 Advanced Vibrations

This course builds upon the undergraduate vibrations course. It introduces energy based methods for derivation of governing equations (Lagrange’s equation, Hamilton’s principle), vibration of distributed parameter systems (strings, rods, beams, and membranes). The second half of the course is focused on practical aspects including signal processing (sampling process, FFT, FRF calculation), basics of modal analysis, dynamics and condition monitoring of rotating machinery.
