To introduce
students to a combination of traditional and
state-of-the-art mechanical vibration theory and
methods, and their application to real world
engineering. To be successful at these
objectives, each midshipman must demonstrate the
following outcomes:
• Students will
demonstrate the ability to analyze the free
motion of simple continuous systems.
• Students will
demonstrate the ability to analyze wave motion
in strings, rods, shafts and beams.
• Students will
demonstrate the ability to analyze the free and
forced response of a single degree of freedom
mechanical oscillator, and apply the work to
real world engineering examples.
• Students will
demonstrate the ability to analyze and design a
tuned vibration absorber.
• Students will
demonstrate the ability to analyze discrete
mass/spring systems and determine natural
frequencies and mode shapes, both analytically
and experimentally.
• Students will
demonstrate the ability to work in groups.
• Students will
demonstrate the ability to communicate
effectively in both the written word and by oral
presentation
