Machine Theory and Dynamics

Course Objective

Machine Foundations form a vital and expensive part of any industrial complex. In Machine Foundations, the designer must consider, in addition to the static loads, the dynamic forces caused by the working of the machine. These dynamic forces are, in turn, transmitted to the foundation supporting the machine. The designer should, therefore, be well conversant with the method of load transmission from the machine as well as with the problems concerning the dynamic behaviour of the foundation and the soil underneath the foundation.
