In this course, we will analyse the vibration behaviour of bars, beams and plates, in which the mass and stiffness are continuously distributed, rather than concentrated in discrete elements. The course covers analytical methods to determine natural frequencies, mode shapes and stresses in vibrating systems, and provides an introduction to numerical methods for solving more complex systems. It also covers the use of experimental testing to measure modal properties.
