Description

Dynamics and kinematics of machine elements; derivations and fundamental analysis of equation of motion of single-degree-of-freedom systems; vibrations: free and forced vibrations (harmonic, periodic, quasi- and aperiodic), introduction to computational methods to solve differential equations (Euler, Newmark-Beta), multi-degree-of-freedom systems.

The course will equip students with in-depth knowledge in dynamics, vibrations, and kinematics as a fundamental element of Mechanical Engineering and a prerequisite to proposed streams in subsequent professional years.

Learning Outcomes

 Understanding of how to codify real-life observations (related to things in motion) with the help of mathematic-mechanical expressions.
 Ability to derive equations of motion of mechanical systems (machine elements and machines) by taught kinematic and dynamic methods.
 Ability to analyse mechanical systems for linear behaviour.
 Ability to independently apply methods and analysis to a wider and yet-unknown spectrum of real-life engineering problems.

University Graduate Attributes

This course will provide students with an opportunity to develop the Graduate Attributes specified below:

Critically competent in a core academic discipline of their award

Students know and can critically evaluate and, where applicable, apply this knowledge to topics/issues within their majoring subject.

Prerequisites
