The oscillations may be periodic such as the motion of a pendulum or random such as the movement of a tire on a gravel road. Most often, vibration is undesirable, wasting energy and creating unwanted sound -- noise. For example, the vibrational motions of engines, electric motors, or any mechanical device in operation are typically unwanted. Such vibrations can be caused by imbalances in the rotating parts, uneven friction, the meshing of gear teeth, etc. Careful designs usually minimize unwanted vibrations. The study of sound and vibration are closely related. Sound, or "pressure waves", are generated by vibrating structures; these pressure waves can also induce the vibration of structures. Therefore, when trying to reduce noise it is often a problem in trying to reduce vibration"-- UR - https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/book/10.1002/9781118962176 ER -
