Course Summary
This course is intended to unify noise and vibration phenomena. Particular importance will be placed
on the interaction between pressure waves and solid structures. The different mechanisms of noise
sources and vibration that exist in compression or pumping facilities will be discussed. An interaction of
fluids with machines’ parts and conduits’ walls conveying flow will be discussed. In addition, these
phenomena will be illustrated by several field examples of practical applications to measure and resolve
vibration and noise problems. Two most important methods used to solve the above problems will be
discussed. Namely, (i) “path treatment” and (ii) “source treatment”.
Objective
At the conclusion of this course, students will be able to understand noise and vibration events as
interrelated dynamic phenomena. It is expected that students will be able to analyse and diagnose simple
dynamic problems which are encountered in the Oil and Gas industry. In addition, the course will present
a few technological advances to visualize or measure complex dynamic fields.
