Synopsis
Engineering Vibrations: With Applications To Structures And Machinery is a comprehensive guide to the principles and applications of vibration engineering. Written by Jacobsen and Lydik Siegumfeldt, this book is designed for students and professionals in mechanical, aerospace, and civil engineering who are interested in understanding the behavior of structures and machinery under the influence of vibration.The book begins with an introduction to the fundamental concepts of vibration, including the basics of free and forced vibrations, damping, and resonance. It then delves into the mathematical modeling of vibrating systems, covering topics such as single-degree-of-freedom systems, multi-degree-of-freedom systems, and continuous systems.The authors also discuss the practical applications of vibration engineering, including the design of structures and machinery to withstand vibration, the measurement and analysis of vibration, and the control of vibration using various techniques.Throughout the book, the authors provide numerous examples and exercises to help readers apply the concepts they have learned. The book also includes a wealth of illustrations and diagrams to aid in understanding.Overall, Engineering Vibrations: With Applications To Structures And Machinery is an invaluable resource for anyone seeking a thorough understanding of vibration engineering and its applications in the design and analysis of structures and machinery.Additional Editor Is Stephen J.
