Learning Outcomes
|
Having successfully completed this module the student will:
1. Be familiar with flexure of components and the behaviour of spring-mass-damper systems.
2. Be able to evaluate the behaviour of a vibrating system and design elastic mounting systems.
3. Be able to simulate dynamic mechanical systems using direct and FE methods.
4. Understand the basic principles of control of mechanical systems and extraction parameters for use in block diagrams
