The subject is addressed at providing the knowledge and capabilities for the mathematical modelling of mechanical systems within industrial applications, with particular attention to the analysis of dynamic phenomena that can be verified in mechanical components.

Knowledge related to dynamic behavior of structures, mechanical systems and rotating machines in stationary or periodical regime and in transitory< phases. Capacity to model and analyze the dynamic behavior of structures, mechanical systems and rotating machines.

Basic knowledge within the mechanical theory and applied mechanics, of mechanical components and of fundamental of differential and integral calculations.
