Impact of Vibrations in Engineering Field
• Examples of Oscillatory motion:
• Heart beating
• Lungs inhaling and exhaling
• Leg and hand motion during walking
• Earthquake
• Machinery oscillations
• Historical Examples of Vibration Destruction:
• Tacoma narrow bridge (aero-elastic flutter)
• Broughton suspension bridge(soldiers walking)
• Millennium bridge( resonance)
• Vibrations with Positive Effects
• Heart-beat and lungs motion
• Musical instruments
• Ultrasonic machining
• Grinding tool and Machining tools
• Machinery like Mixer, washing machines, vacuum cleaner generate sound when
vibrating.
• Any machine member having Elasticity and mass is capable of oscillating.
• Reasons of Vibrations:
• Unbalance
• Misalignment
• Bent shaft
• Gear in machine
• Loose foundation

• Basic topics we study in Vibration engineering

• Free and forced vibrations
• Damped and Undamped vibrations
• Single and multi degree vibrations
• Critical speed of shaft and resonance
• Vibration isolators and materials

Examination View

• Type of question and approach

• SI units matter a lot.
• Study all choices given when in stage of confusion.
• Basic approach
• Example
Question: In most practical situation the speed of rotation of shaft is
usually
is below the critical speed.
