After successful completion of the course, students are able to perform vibration analysis of real building and bridge structures (railway bridges, wind turbines, pedestrian bridges, foundations of instruments, etc.) and evaluate the results. Students are also able to plan, calculate and optimise a vibration damper for real building and bridge constructions and to evaluate the achieved vibration reduction.

Diverse applications of structural dynamics in building and bridge construction as well as to vibration damper systems.

Lectures including many numerical example problems.

Appointment for the preliminary meeting:

Friday 11.10.2024 from 12:00 to 12:30 Uhr at seminar room AE U1 - 7

Further information:

The lecture is held weekly in blocks of 4 hours each (4 x 45 minutes). There are 7 blocks in total.

Currently, the 7 Mondays from October 21, 2024 are scheduled for lectures from 8:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.. The last lecture block will take place on December 2, 2024.

The exact lecture dates and times can be coordinated with the interested students during the preliminary discussion.

Written and oral examination OR preparation (including presentation) of a project and oral examination.
