Institution:

Clemson University

Subject:

Mechanical Engineering

Description:

Vibrations of lumped-parameters systems - free and forced vibrations of SDOF and MDOF systems, general eigenvalue problem and modal analysis. Variational approach and energy methods. Vibrations of distributed-parameter systems - strings, bars, shafts, beams, membranes and plates. Approximate methods - Rayleigh's Quotient, Rayleigh-Ritz methods, method of functions expansion, Galerkin's and assumed mode methods. Preq: ME 8460 or consent of instructor.
