Understanding vibration behavior in modern systems is a complex task, requiring detailed mathematical models to evaluate the sources and effects of vibrations. Fortunately, there are a number of software tools available for modeling and analyzing this behavior. In chapters drawn from the highly popu..
This text addresses principles and problems across vibroacoustics -- the prediction of structural vibration levels resulting from known force or pressure excitations and the prediction of sound radiation levels from structures vibrating with a known velocity amplitude...
MODELING OF DYNAMIC SYSTEMS takes a unique, up-to-date approach to systems dynamics and related controls coverage for undergraduate students and practicing engineers. It focuses on the model development of engineering problems rather than response analysis and simulation once a model is available, t..
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 ..
About the Series: This important new series of five volumes has been written with both the professional engineer and the academic in mind. Christian Lalanne explores every aspect of vibration and shock, two fundamental and crucially important areas of mechanical engineering, from both the theoretic..
This fourth edition of this volume features a new chapter on computational methods that presents the basic principles on which most modern computer programs are developed. It introduces an example on rotor balancing and expands on the section on shock spectrum and isolation...
The fifth edition discusses new applications including underwater acoustic networks and channel models, marine-hydrokinetic energy devices, and simulation of anthropogenic sound sources. New material has been added to all chapters, especially in mathematical propagation models and special applicatio..
Measuring and testing for vibration is critical in maximizing system durability and ensuring safety, including effects of vibrations on humans and their environment. Condensing information from the highly popular Vibration and Shock Handbook, this book supplies a convenient guide to the tools, techn..
