What will I learn?
Gain hands-on skills to analyse and manage vibrations in slim structures, emphasising damping, serviceability, and comfort. Handle SDOF models, free and forced responses, resonance, and acceleration assessments, then dive into practical fixes like extra damping, mass tuning, stiffening, cost reviews, and straightforward reporting to stakeholders.
