1. Introduction to Course

1.1 Importance of the course

Page 1 of 12
Course Policy ME501 Dynamics of Machinery

1. Natural or free mechanical vibration is a manifestation of the oscillatory

behavior in a mechanical system, as a result of repetitive interchange of
kinetic and potential energies among components in the system. Such
oscillatory response is not limited to purely mechanical systems, and is
found in electrical and fluid systems as well, again due to a repetitive
exchange of two types of energy among system components. Forced
vibration is resulted due to oscillatory forces that excite a system. In this
course we will limit our attention to vibration in mechanical systems.
Both translatory and rotatory mechanical systems will be considered.
Linear, multi-degree-of-freedom (lumped-parameter) systems will be
studied, and some attention will be given to distributed-parameter
(continuous) systems. Topics covered in the course will include response
analysis, both in the time domain and the frequency domain, vibration
monitoring and instrumentation, modal analysis including experimental
techniques, mechanical damping (energy dissipation), computational
techniques, and design and control of mechanical systems for modifying
their vibration characteristics.The course will include mandatory
laboratory exercises.

1.2 Objective of the Course

2. Objective : This course deals with observation, analysis,
and modification of vibration in mechanical systems and its balancing. In
addition to analysis and experimentation, practical applications and
design considerations related to modifying the vibrational behavior of
mechanical devices and structures will also be studied. This
understanding is important for humans, particularly engineers, as there
are desirable types of vibration such as those generated by musical
instruments and by vibrators used in physiotherapy, industrial part
feeders and sorters; and undesirable and harmful types of vibration such
as those generated by construction equipment, road irregularities, and
due to earthquakes.

1.2 Pre-requisite:
knowledge of Mechanics , kinematics, Dynamics of machinery-1,Mathematics and Physics.

Active learning is a method of learning in which students are actively or
experientially involved in the learning process. Following active learning
techniques will be adopted for the course.
