Book Description -- Logically organized, this book guides readers through all aspects of vibration analysis. Each chapter explains how to harness the problem-solving capabilities of today's popular engineering software, including Mathcad, Maple, Matlab, and Mathematica. Topics covered include vibration measurement, finite element analysis, and eigenvalue determination. Included are more than 300 solved problems--completely explained.
Schaum's Outline Series are good! -- I raise a hand of praise to these books in general. But, when it comes to Mechanical Vibrations, this guide falls short in some places. While the problems you must solve are of great help, some of the calculated problems and discussions are somewhat misleading (especially if you're rusty on your matrices).
