Assigned Department Objectives

Teaching Method

Outline:
Lectures will be conducted concerning the essentials of vibration engineering, which is indispensable for the seismic and wind resistant design of buildings and bridges.
In addition, a professor, who has experience as an engineer of bridge fabricator and has engaged in the design of steel bridges and steel structures, will conduct a lecture-style class on the essentials of vibration engineering, by using his experiences.
Style:
Classes will be conducted using handouts, slides, and note-taking.
Notice:
This course's content will amount to 90 hours of study in total. These hours include the learning time guaranteed in classes and the standard self-study time required for pre-study / review, and completing assignment reports. The course is open to students from any department. Students should write on the board in class and should not miss the review of the lecture.
Students who miss 1/3 or more of classes will not be eligible for evaluation.
The minimum score for a pass will be 60% based on the following performance evaluation methods. Miyoshi: Evaluations will be based on :
1. Exams (70%)
2. Reports (30%)
