<br/><br/> Retaining the style of previous editions, this sixth SI edition of Mechanical Vibrations effectively presents theory, computational aspects and <br/>applications of vibration in a lucid manner. With an emphasis on computer techniques of analysis, it gives expanded explanations of the fundamentals, focusing on physical significance and interpretation that build upon students’ previous experience. In <br/>this edition, several additions and revisions have been made including new examples, problems and <br/>illustrations with the goal of making coverage of concepts both more comprehensive and easier to follow. <br/>Features:<br/>1. Each topic is self-contained, with all concepts explained fully and the derivations presented with complete<br/>details.<br/>2. Computational aspects are emphasized throughout the book. MATLAB-based examples as well as several<br/>general purpose MATLAB programs with illustrative examples are given in each chapter.<br/>3. The <br/>description and formulation of vibration problems in several different systems of units is considered to<br/>obtain the same response of the physical system.<br/>Pedagogy includes:<br/>34 design-project-type problems <br/>55 MATLAB programs <br/>252 illustrative examples<br/>988 review questions<br/>1214 problems<br/>Table of Contents Chapter 1 Fundamentals of Vibration <br/>Chapter 2 Free Vibration of Single-Degree-of-Freedom Systems <br/>Chapter 3 Harmonically Excited Vibration <br/>Chapter 4 Vibration Under General Forcing Conditions<br/>Chapter 5 Two-Degree-of-Freedom Systems <br/>Chapter 6 Multidegree-of-Freedom Systems <br/>Chapter 7 Determination of Natural Frequencies and Mode Shapes<br/>Chapter 8 Continuous Systems <br/>Chapter 9 Vibration Control <br/>Chapter 10 Vibration Measurement and Applications<br/>Chapter 11 Numerical Integration Methods in Vibration Analysis <br/>Chapter 12 Finite Element Method<br/>Chapter 13 Nonlinear Vibration<br/>Chapter 14 Random Vibration.
