MEE3261 Dynamics of Machines

The course aims the application of dynamic principles in the working principle of machines .It covers the inertia forces in the slider crank mechanism, the balance of rotating and reciprocating parts. The course also deals with the analysis of gyroscopic couple and the working principle and dynamic analysis of the governor.
