Book Description
Provides a thorough coverage of basic concepts of mechanical
vibrations with both mathematical and physical insight.
Synopsis
Presenting theory, computational aspects and applications in as
simple a manner as possible, this text on vibration engineering,
now in its third edition, is a straightforward introduction to the
subject. It provides thorough coverage of basic material with both
mathematical and physical insight. This edition features increased
use of real-world examples and problems and the addition of
open-ended design problems and examples. Fortran programs are
included on an accompanying disk.
From the Back Cover
While presenting theory, computational aspects, and applications
of vibrations in as simple a manner as possible, this book serves
