Modern Vibrations Primer is the first vibrations text fully integrated with computer-based problem solving. It provides up-to-date material not only on fundamental methods of analysis, but on practical applications in industry. The author develops concepts from the bottom up, devoting the first few chapters to material covered in the first few pages of most other texts. He offers step-by-step instruction for converting real-life problems into simplified models for analysis, and presents mathematics and physical reasoning side by side. Later chapters focus on methods used in industry. This is a clear, highly readable text with a progressive, lecture-like presentation. CONDITION – USED: Books sold are in GOOD or better condition.
