Course No. : ME F319

Course Title : VIBRATIONS AND CONTROL
Instructor-in-Charge : Dr. Sabareesh G R
Instructors : Dr Punnag Chatterjee
Tutorial Instructors : Dr.Sabareesh, Dr Punnag C, Dr. Kundan Singh, P Narayana, Gururaja

Scope and Objective of the Course:

This course is designed to acquaint the students with topics in vibrations and control. The emphasis is on
application to common engineering situations. The course will cover topics on Small oscillations of linear
dynamical systems, free and forced vibrations of single and multi-degree-of-freedom systems, normal modes
and orthogonality relations, generalized coordinates, and Lagrange's equations, matrix formulation, eigen-value
problem, and numerical solutions, transient response of one-dimensional systems. Introduction to continuous
system, vibration measurement and analysis, closed loop control, conventional and non-conventional control
strategies, transfer function, dynamic response, and stability criteria, state space approach and exposure to
simulation tools.
