Handbook

Expert-led sessions provide an introduction to the concepts, theory and solution of the dynamic problems. This includes the discussions about the validity of different assumptions and simplifications during formulating a real-world engineering problem and the impact of such assumptions on the validity of the results. During interactive problem-solving classes, questions and problems on solutions of balancing and vibration problems will be dealt with. In order to answer the questions or to solve the problems, you need to review the materials and try to implement your understandings of the concepts and theories taught during the interactive sessions.

There are scheduled problem-solving classes on Zoom as per the unit schedule for each week. You must attend these sessions. Once a particular session is full, no more students will be accepted unless evidence is shown that timetabling means that is the only session possible.

The test will cover topics from Weeks 1 - 6

The minimum total expected workload to achieve the learning outcomes for this unit is 144 hours per semester typically comprising a mixture of 3-6 hours of scheduled learning activities and 6-9 hours of independent study per week. Scheduled activities may include a combination of teacher-directed learning, peer-directed learning and online engagement. Independent study may include associated readings, assessment and preparation for scheduled activities.

In general, you must be able to complete the requirements of your course without the imposition of fees that are additional to the student contribution amount or tuition fees. However, you may be charged certain incidental fees or be expected to make certain purchases to support your study.
