Focusing on practical applications yet covering theoretical aspects too, this volume explains optimization techniques for vibrating systems omitted by many standard texts. It deploys both Newton-Euler and Lagrange methodology to derive equations.
Advanced Vibrations: A Modern Approach is presented at a theoretical-practical level and explains mechanical vibrations concepts in detail, concentrating on their practical use. Related theorems and formal proofs are provided, as are real-life applications. Students, researchers and practicing engineers alike will appreciate the user-friendly presentation of a wealth of topics including but not limited to practical optimization for designing vibration isolators, and transient, harmonic and random excitations.
