Course Goals / Objectives:
Obtain an understanding of Newtonian and energy methods for deriving the governing equations of motion of structural elements made of deformable elastic solids
Obtain an understanding of the direct method for the determination of the fundamental frequencies (eigenvalues) and mode shapes (eigenfunctions) of freely vibrating structural elements and their dependence on the element boundary conditions
Obtain an understanding of the use of energy methods for the approximate determination of the fundamental frequencies and mode shapes of freely vibrating structural elements
Obtain an understanding of the method of eigenfunction expansion for determining the forced vibration response of elastic structural elements and the dependence of that response on the type and frequency of the external forcing
Obtain a more thorough understanding of the mechanical models used to represent the internal stress and deformation of the basic structural elements
Obtain a brief overview of computational methods in vibrations of elastic solids
