Course Overview

The course on Nonlinear Vibration by Swayam has been structured as a simulation based session where one can visualize the response of the different mechanical systems available, along with the different resonance responses provided. The entire programme has been divided into nine modules and out of the nine modules, the first eight modules are framed on the- various equations of motion available, it also provides the solutions of the procedure to solve the various equations and their application in the daily world. 

The eight modules i.e. the last module will be covered over a course of three weeks where the applicants will be provided with three different applications that are related to the projects that will be provided to the students in the practical classes. The Nonlinear Vibration certification benefits is for the students who want to secure a career in the field of manufacturing and aerospace.
