Schmitz T.L., Smith K.S. Mechanical Vibrations: Modeling and Measurement

Springer Science+Business Media, 2012, 378 pages, ISBN: 1461404592Mechanical Vibrations: Modeling and Measurement describes essential concepts in vibration analysis of mechanical systems. It incorporates the required mathematics, experimental techniques, fundamentals of model analysis, and beam theory into a unified framework that is written to be accessible to undergraduate students, researchers, and practicing engineers. To unify the various concepts, a single experimental platform is used throughout the text. Engineering drawings for the platform are included in an appendix. Additionally, MatLAB programming solutions are integrated into the content throughout the text.Single Degree of Freedom Free Vibration
