5. Course Description (Catalog Description):


Covers modeling, analysis, and measurement of mechanical damped and undamped, forced and
free vibrations in single and multiple degree-of-freedom dynamic systems. The processes of
energy storage and dissipation, which are common for the different kinds of dynamic systems,
will be emphasized and analogous elements will be addressed when modeling different dynamic
systems. Introduction to basic concepts in system theory such as system state and stability.
Elements of frequency response. Fourier and Laplace transform techniques. Total response
from partial fraction expansion.

7. Learning Outcomes:
Upon completion of the course, students will be able to:
1. Identify relevant mathematical, physical, or systems principles to formulate mechanical,
electrical, electromechanical, or fluidic systems
2. Formulate mathematical models for dynamic systems and perform mathematical model
linearization
3. Perform necessary calculations, and simulate the transient and steady-state response of
dynamic systems, using appropriate methods, e.g., state-space, transfer functions…
4. Analyze the results (steady-state and dynamics system specifications in the time domain
and in the frequency domain)
5. Use computer software and packages to solve engineering problems (Matlab and Matlab-
Simulink for dynamic system simulation)
