Dynamics and Vibrations ENG211
Hobart
Introduction
In this unit you will develop knowledge and skills for solving problems in mechanical engineering specifically in the field of dynamics and vibration, this building on the theory of Newtonian Mechanics applied to the analysis of rigid body kinematics and kinetics. This is undertaken by applying theory to solve advanced dynamics problems involving rigid body motion and vibration through technical analysis as well as practical implementation based on undertaking laboratory experiments specific to the field of mechanical engineering.

Learning Outcomes
- Solve mechanical engineering problems involving rigid body motion and vibration using advanced theory based on Newtonian Mechanics.
- Apply practical techniques for the measurement and/or analysis of mechanical engineering based problems involving dynamics and vibration.
- Collect and analyse experimental or theoretical data as an individual or within a team context.
- Formulate a series of clear conclusions and justifications based on advanced theory for comparison to interpreted experimental results.
