Theory of Vibration

An Introduction

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The aim of this book is to impart a sound understanding, both physical and mathematical, of the fundamental theory of vibration and its applications.
The book presents in a simple and systematic manner techniques that can easily be applied to the analysis of vibration of mechanical and structural systems. Unlike other texts on vibrations, the approach is general, based on the conversation of energy and Lagranian dynamics, and develops specific techniques from these foundations in clearly understandable stages.
Suitable for a one-semester course of vibrations, the book presents new concepts in simple terms and explains procedures for solving problems in considerable detail.

Rezensionen

"The text is particularly easy to read and moves from one section to the next with no major changes in style. It is obvious that the structure of the material is...based on a set of mature class notes...a very worthwhile addition to the vibration literature" - Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers
