What will I learn?
This course provides a streamlined, hands-on journey from basic mass-spring systems to advanced damping, resonance, and vibration isolation design. Learners derive and solve key differential equations, interpret frequency, period, energy, and phase, tackle numerical examples, validate outcomes, and use transmissibility and Bode plot tools to assess and refine practical setups with assured parameter selection.
