The chapters of the course, grouped according to the general objectives, are as follows:

Characterization of the vibrations of a system:
- analytical study: finite element calculation.
- experimental study: means of measurement and software for experimental modal analysis.

Vibration reduction methodology:
- actions on the source of the vibrations,
- actions on the transmission of vibrations,
- actions on the system's own response.

Conditional and provisional maintenance of rotating machinery:
- types of defects in rotating machinery,
- choice and limitations of monitoring indicators and diagnostic tools.

These chapters are complemented by the presentation of frequency analysis tools: Fourier series and digital Fourier transform, used in the experimental characterization of systems and diagnosis of defects in rotating machines.

The theoretical knowledge on the characterization of the vibrations of a system is implemented during three sessions of practical work, relating respectively to the use:
- means of measurement,
- a modal analysis software,
- finite element calculations software.

Courses (14h)
Failure under static stresses:
The brittle and ductile fracture mechanisms are studied for the different families of materials as well as the various influencing parameters. The brittle ductile transition, the toughness, as well as the fracture statistics, complete this part to refine the choices of materials and their dimensioning for the strenght to sudden fracture by crack propagation.
Failure under dynamic stresses
The mechanisms of fatigue failure in materials, and the bases of pre-dimensioning of parts for dynamic stresses are studied.
The course is illustrated with numerous examples and exercises from expertises treated in the laboratory.
Practical work (6x4h)
In the form of mini projects allowing for a global consideration of the design, choice of materials, analytical and numerical calculations and expertise of parts subjected to dynamic or statics constraints.
