Course Content
This course aims to teach the fundamental principles of vibrations in mechanical systems. Initially, the basic concepts of vibration theory will be covered, followed by mathematical modeling techniques and system analysis using the Lagrange equation. The behavior of single-degree-of-freedom and multi-degree-of-freedom systems will be examined in detail, with a focus on natural frequencies and mode shapes. Additionally, harmonic and general forced vibrations will be analyzed, and vibration and noise control methods will be discussed. In the final part of the course, vibration measurement techniques and applications will be introduced, and students will present their projects to apply their acquired knowledge in practice.
Objectives of the Course
The objective of this course is to equip students with the theoretical and practical knowledge necessary to understand and solve vibration problems in engineering systems. Students will gain the ability to analyze the dynamic behavior of systems and apply appropriate modeling and control techniques to minimize vibration levels.
