VERSION SPECIFIC DATA
course aims in Estonian
• luua võimalused mehhanosüsteemide dünaamika probleemide lahendamiseks vajalike oskuste kujunemiseks,
• luua võimalused mehhanismide analüüsi ja sünteesi läbiviimiseks vajalike oskuste kujunemiseks,
• luua eeldused masinates tekkivate vibratsioonide analüüsiks ja nende leevendamiseks vajalike oskuste kujunemiseks.
