The document is a mid-semester examination for a Vibration Engineering course. It contains 4 questions assessing various concepts in vibration engineering. Question 1 involves determining properties of a damped vibrating system given amplitude ratios. Question 2 involves deriving and graphing expressions for the amplitude of an underdamped, overdamped, and critically damped system. Question 3 involves deriving expressions related to whirling of rotating shafts, resonance sharpness, and transmissibility ratio. Question 4 involves short notes on finding natural frequencies using energy and Rayleigh methods, accelerometers, vibrometers, and signal analyzers.
