Fundamentals of waves and vibrations

See our course teaser on http://goo.gl/SU25sF Waves are everywhere. On water of course, but also in the air as you hear a plane, and under your feet during an earthquake certainly. Vibrations, too, are everywhere In your bike as you go over a bump, in you guitar as you play, and of course in your smartphone. You can guess that there is something in common behind all this. This is exactly the purpose of this course ! So if you want to understand better waves and vibrations, and the relation between them and to use that knowledge in your field, this MOOC is for you. We are going to consider any possible domains of applications such as civil engineering, aerospace engineering, plant biomechanics, and many others ! This is why we called the course “fundamentals of waves and vibrations”. There are so many phenomena and so many models that we need to work with you on the basic mechanisms . We look forward to see you in the course, and work together !

What people are saying

watching lectures multiple times

I ended up watching lectures multiple times to understand what was happening on the math side.

few lab based teaching

It's very interesting as it has a few lab based teaching as well i found it really hard.

final exam that lead

I really enjoyed the final exam that lead me to apply the gained knowledge to a small system and compute numerical solutions to the dynamic equations both in frequency and time domain.

different subjects about waves

lab sessions are highly

The lab sessions are highly interesting to get a feeling for real world dynamics.

material is clearly explained

The course material is clearly explained by the three instructors.

short videos resulted

Short videos resulted in skipping through the required mathematical and conceptual discussions to get a proper feel of the topics.

compute numerical solutions

dynamic equations both

many practical research

ended up watching

decent range

The content of the course was however pretty good covering a decent range of topics in vibration dynamics.
