Teaching strategies
Flow Induced Vibration is an optional course which is offered to 5th year MAI students and
Graduate Students. The course material is present as a series of seminars. The continuous
assessment is in the form of a number of modelling exercises of system dynamics and
galloping. Although the course is quite mathematical, real world examples and anecdotes,
particularly from the aerospace and power generation industries, drawn from the lecturers
research expertise, are used to illustrate the technical content. This helps the student to
contextualize the details of the course in an engineering light.
Assessment
Exam (80%) and assignments (20%).
