Vibration Syllabus

This document outlines the topics covered in a course on mechanical vibrations. It includes mathematical modeling of single and multi-degree of freedom vibrating systems, transient vibrations, vibration measurement and control methods, and noise measurement and control. Specific topics covered are free and forced vibrations, derivation of equations of motion for 2+ degree of freedom systems, transient response to impulse and arbitrary excitations, vibration measurement using FFT analyzers, vibration control through source excitation reduction and use of absorbers, and measurement and control of sound waves and machine noise. Recommended textbooks and references for further study are also provided.
