ME304 DYNAMICS OF MACHINERY 2-1-0-3 2016
Prerequisite: ME301 Mechanics of Machinery
Course Objectives:
 To impart knowledge on force analysis of machinery, balancing of rotating and
reciprocating masses, Gyroscopes, Energy fluctuation in Machines.
 To introduce the fundamentals in vibration, vibration analysis of single degree of
freedom systems.
 To understand the physical significance and design of vibration systems with desired
conditions
Syllabus
Force analysis of machinery - static and dynamic force analysis of plane motion mechanisms.
Flywheel analysis - static and dynamic balancing - balancing of rotating masses, gyroscopic couples.
Vibrations – free vibrations of single degree freedom systems, damping, forced vibration, torsional
vibration.
Expected outcome:
The students will be able to
1. Develop the design and practical problem solving skills in the area of mechanisms
2. Understand the basics of vibration and apply the concepts in design problems of
mechanisms.
