Purpose of class
Vibration analysis
If high-value added mechanical structures with a low-vibration or a low-noise design can be produced in the market, methods in static and dynamic design need to be used to make it with desired dynamic characteristics. The course aims to learn data acquisition, data processing, and analysis methods to make the structures.

Statistical mechanics
Statistical mechanics gives a framework for understanding macroscopic phenomena in view of microscopic interactions. Because of its broad applicability in the analytic description of phenomena beyond physics, it is indispensable in materials, information, and quantum engineering. At the beginning of the course, we introduce the statistical physics and analyze tractable simple models. Through exercises, we learn the fundamentals of statistical physics and its applications.
Course description
The course is designed to allow students to achieve competence in the experimental and analytical methods for solving academic questions and aims to provide a basic understanding of an exercise in vibration analysis and statistical mechanics fields.
Goals and objectives
  1. Students can write programs to control the Microcontroller Board and measure vibration responses.
  2. Students should understand the knowledge needed to organize vibration testing. Students should understand and analyze data from a stretchable sensor and an accelerometer using a Microcontroller Board, and then clarify the vibration characteristics of the target.
  3. Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to understand the fundamental framework of the statistical physics and to analyze rubber elasticity and magnetic materials.
  4. Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to compute quantities by using Monte Carlo simulations and to analyze the numerical data by finite-size scaling analysis.
