Advanced Mechanical Vibrations

Advanced Mechanical Vibrations: Physics, Mathematics and Applications provides a concise and solid exposition of the fundamental concepts and ideas that pervade many specialised disciplines where linear engineering vibrations are involved. Covering the main key aspects of the subject – from the formulation of the equations of motion by means of analytical techniques to the response of discrete and continuous systems subjected to deterministic and random excitation – the text is ideal for intermediate to advanced students of engineering, physics and mathematics. In addition, professionals working in – or simply interested in – the field of mechanical and structural vibrations will find the content helpful, with an approach to the subject matter that places emphasis on the strict, inextricable and sometimes subtle interrelations between physics and mathematics, on the one hand, and theory and applications, on the other hand. It includes a number of worked examples in each chapter, two detailed mathematical appendixes and an extensive list of references.

Advanced Mechanical Vibrations: Physics, Mathematics and Applications provides a concise and solid exposition of the fundamental concepts of linear vibrations that apply in many specialised disciplines across engineering and science. It covers key subject areas from the formulation of the equations of motion by means of analytical techniques, to the response of discrete and continuous systems subjected to deterministic and random excitation. The text is ideal for intermediate to advanced students of engineering, physics and mathematics. In addition, professionals working in - or simply interested in - the field of mechanical and structural vibrations will find the content helpful since it approaches the subject in a way that emphasises the strict, inextricable, and sometimes subtle interrelations between physics and mathematics, as well as theory and applications.

Discusses in a concise but thorough manner, this book highlights the fundamental statement of the theory, principles and methods of mechanical vibrations. The book includes concepts and review of analytical dynamics, the basic single degree of freedom systems and the complex multiple degree of freedom systems. In addition, it covers the energy and matrix methods, Lagrange's equations, continuous systems, Vibration measurements and Nonlinear and random vibrations.

Delineating a comprehensive theory, Advanced Vibration Analysis provides the bedrock for building a general mathematical framework for the analysis of a model of a physical system undergoing vibration. The book illustrates how the physics of a problem is used to develop a more specific framework for the analysis of that problem. The author elucidat

Mechanical Vibration: Analysis, Uncertainties, and Control, Fourth Edition addresses the principles and application of vibration theory. Equations for modeling vibrating systems are explained, and MATLAB® is referenced as an analysis tool. The Fourth Edition adds more coverage of damping, new case studies, and development of the control aspects in vibration analysis. A MATLAB appendix has also been added to help students with computational analysis. This work includes example problems and explanatory figures, biographies of renowned contributors, and access to a website providing supplementary resources.
