Mechanical Vibrations | SI Edition | Sixth Edition | By Pearson (Paperback)  | Released: 25-Jun-18

Retaining the style of previous editions, this sixth SI edition of Mechanical Vibrations effectively presents theory, computational aspects and pplications 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 his edition, several additions and revisions have been made including new examples, problems and llustrations with the goal of making coverage of concepts both more comprehensive and easier to follow. eatures:. Each topic is self-contained, with all concepts explained fully and the derivations presented with completeetails.. Computational aspects are emphasized throughout the book. MATLAB-based examples as well as severaleneral purpose MATLAB programs with illustrative examples are given in each chapter..
