The document is a report on torsional vibrations submitted by Puskhar Datta, a student at the Government College of Engineering and Textile Technology in Serampore, India. It includes an introduction to torsional vibrations and sections covering topics like torsional vibration analysis, critical speeds, damping, measurement techniques, and applications to automotive and rotating machinery systems. The goal is to analyze torsional vibrations which are oscillations that occur when an object twists or rotates about its central axis.
