Course Objectives: This course deals with the dynamics of various physical systems like flywheels,
governors, gyroscopes etc. In continuation to the topics covered in Mechanics of Machines, this
course reviews the detailed concepts of single-DOF vibrating systems. Moreover, the aim of this
course is to model and analyze two- and multi-DOFs systems with their applications in the real world
Laboratory Work:
Basic knowledge and experiments related to simple pendulum, compound pendulum, damping
coefficient, critical speed, balancing of rotors.
Research Assignment: Groupassignment for this course may include one of the following topics:
● Natural frequencies of physical systems
● Modal analysis of realistic systems
● Suspension systems of vehicles
● Vibration isolation of machines
● Gyroscopic effect in aero planes and ships
Micro Project: Groupproject for this course may include one of the following topics:
● Determine the natural frequencies of physical systems like, suspension system, bridge etc. (both
using analytical and numerical approach)
● Calculate the mode shapes and perform modal analysis analytically and validate the results
obtained using commercial packages.
● Determination of damping value experimentally using logarithmic decrement method and validate
theoretically.
● Develop simple 1-2 DOF system like inverted pendulum, measure the system response and relate
to theoretical concepts for validation.
Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs):
The students will be able to:
1. apply engineering principle of mechanics to design motion transmission devices and flywheels.
2. determine the appropriate parameters for stability of a vehicle using the concept of gyroscopic
action.
3. derive the dynamic model of real-life problems and verify the natural frequencies and mode
shapes.
4. analyze two- and multi-DOF physical systems analytically and validate using a commercial
package
