General objectives
- Recall the method of modal analysis for multi-body systems
- Apply modal analysis for one or two degrees of freedom system
- Plot and understand a frequency response diagram for a mechanical system
- Combine analytical methods and a numerical approach to solve study the vibration of a system
- Check consistency of a vibration analysis applied to an industrial case
Content
The course resumes the basics of vibration analysis.
At first the vibration analysis and its matrix formalism is presented and applied at two degrees of freedom systems.
Then, damping and vibration isolation is presented.
Exercises are done after each notion to put into practice formula and method introduced in the course.
