Mechanical Vibration is the study of oscillatory motions of mechanical system. It is both useful and harmful for engineering systems. Sometimes, it is profitably used in musical instruments, propagation of sound etc. On the other hand, excessive vibration causes damage to buildings and rapid wear of machine parts such as gear & bearing. At the stage of resonance, it may even lead to the shutdown of the turbine units which directly disturbed the economical system, time management, employment system of a nation. Resonance is the stage where the natural frequency of the system is equal to the external excitation frequency. Due to this, the amplitude of vibration is excessive at resonance. So, determination of first few modes of natural frequency of a system is a must for design point of view. So, it is essentially required to have the knowledge of vibration (natural frequency) for a designer.

The research in the field of vibration is quite mesmerizing and continuously acquiring a great attention of scientists and design engineers because of its unbounded effect on human life. In the engineering we can not move without considering the effect of vibration because almost all machines and engineering structures experiences vibrations. Study of effect of vibration can't be restricted only in the field of science but, our day to day life is also affected by it. Whether it be a constructive aspect e.g. aircraft, space shuttle, satellite or design engineering to the destructive aspect, e.g. tsunami, earthquake etc., none of these are remained untouched with the effect of vibrations. The study of vibration responses are of great importance, almost in all engineering applications, such as, space shuttle, satellites, aircrafts, earthquake resistant newly designed structures and also in chip design in electronics etc.. All the above said structures/ fields shows a significant effect on themselves with variation in temperature so the study of effect of temperature on such structural materials is of immense importance.
