Abstract
The course provides an in-depth physical understanding of wave propagation and develops the skills needed to implement wave-based approaches for modeling vibrations in waveguides.
It focuses on the physics and modeling of wave propagation in structures and solids, including the formulation of theories for one-dimensional structures such as rods and beams.
The course also addresses dissipation, dispersion, reflection, and transmission phenomena, as well as wave propagation in plates and shells. Experimental techniques and recent practical applications will also be presented.
Course Format
The course is taught in ๐ฌ๐ง ENGLISH and offered:
– On-site
– Online, in synchronous and asynchronous modes
Video recordings, hand-outs, and additional learning materials are available offline.
What You’ll Learn
- The fundamental principles of elastic wave motion in strings, rods, and beams
- How waves propagate through rods and beams
- How to analyze energy flow and damping in waveguides
- The effects of forcing, reflection, and transmission on waves in beams
- The fundamental mechanisms of wave propagation in plates
- The main approaches used for vibration control
- Experimental techniques for measuring dispersion curves
- How anechoic terminations can be designed and implemented
- How wave-propagation methods are applied to underground mapping, leak detection, anechoic terminations, and ice removalmaterials
