INTRODUCTION
What is Vibration? Crew discomfort, fatigue and increased maintenance cost Produces acoustic noise and signatures

VIBRATION IN MARINE SYSTEMS

Steady-state vibration
Hull Propulsion system Unbalance of propellers, shafts and machineries Hydrodynamic forces
Local structures, machinery etc.
Vibrating hull Unbalanced machinery and equipment

Contd

Transient vibrations
Slamming
Shocks generated by air blasts and

underwater explosions
