Vibration analysis and control are increasingly important as technology races forward. Vibrations are caused by many phenomena, such as fluid flow and combustion. The study of vibrations touches a multitude of disciplines. In fact, vibration analysis is important to physicists and mathematicians, as well as to engineers. As such, vibration analysis has evolved into a very sophisticated and elegant field where the most current tools for analysis are available, such as chaos and fractal theory.
There are four labs are available in this topic:
