Written for both senior undergraduate and graduate course levels, this updated and expanded second edition integrates uncertainty and control into the discussion of vibration, outlining basic concepts before delving into the mathematical rigors of modeling and analysis. Mechanical Vibration: Analysis, Uncertainties, and Control, Second Edition provides example problems, end-of-chapter exercises, and an up-to-date set of mini-projects to enhance students' computational abilities and includes abundant references for further study or more in-depth information. The author provides a MATLAB? primer on an accompanying CD-ROM, which contains original programs that can be used to solve complex problems and test solutions. The book is self-contained, covering both basic and more advanced topics such as stochastic processes and variational approaches. It concludes with a completely new chapter on nonlinear vibration and stability. Professors will find that the logical sequence of material is ideal for tailoring individualized syllabi, and students will benefit from the abundance of problems and MATLAB programs provided in the text and on the accompanying CD-ROM, respectively. A solutions manual is also available with qualifying course adoptions.
An ideal reference tool for practicing professionals who want a clearer understanding of the technical details of a design project, this book provides a thorough and in-depth discussion of basic vibration that offers real physical insights into the equations. Introducing advanced topics first qualitatively then mathematically, it offers extensive physical analyses, realistic example problems, and lists of mini-projects that lead readers to relevant literature in the discipline.Presents a detailed formulation of equations of motion and physical meanings, and provides interesting real- world examples to demonstrate how the theory applies to problems of concern in the industry.For vibration engineers, structural engineers, civil engineers, mechanical engineers and project engineers.
Reviews:
The book provides a way of applying theoretical dynamics in real - world systems. Complex mathematics are presented from the physical point of view, thus providing a fine tool so for engineering students, as for professional engineers. A series of examples and exercises at the end of each chapter and a lot of fine references are also available.
