Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we mainly developed the teaching materials on the issue of dynamics (motion and vibration) for mechanical engineering students. Major results obtained are summarized as follows: (1) Development of the teaching materials to solve a lot of practice problems related to uniform motion and uniformly accelerated motion by using a graphical method without using formula. (2) Development of various experimental devices for the purpose to observe of motion and vibration phenomena, especially a resonance and a natural vibration mode. (3) In previous studies, the Principal Investigator has developed a software called DSS which supports the sequence of operation of numerically solving the motion equation and displaying the analytical results graphically. This time a new function called MOVIE was added to DSS to be able to watch a real vibration phenomenon. Furthermore, a learning program is proposed for motion and vibration by using DSS.
