Mechanical Vibration. Fundamentals with Solved Examples

Mechanical oscillators in Lagrange's formalism – a thorough problem-solved approach This book takes a logically organized, clear and thorough problem-solved approach at instructing the reader in the application of Lagrange's formalism to derive mathematical models for mechanical oscillatory systems, while laying a foundation for vibration engineering analyses and design. Each chapter contains brief introductory theory portions, followed by a large number of fully solved examples. These problems, inherent in the design and analysis of mechanical systems and engineering structures, are characterised by a complexity and originality that is rarely found in textbooks. Numerous…
