Book Description :

Retaining the style of its previous editions, this text presents the theory, computational aspects, and applications of vibrations in as simple a manner as possible. 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. Each self-contained topic fully explains all concepts and presents the derivations with complete details. Numerous examples and problems illustrate principles and concepts.

Features

• NEW - Interactive C++ and Fortran programs, and problems involving MATLAB, C++, and Fortran—Included in every chapter.
• NEW - Companion Website—Provides answers to all review questions, source codes of all programs, all figures in the book and more.
• Simple presentation with illustrative examples.
• Over 900 applied critical thinking problems.
• Design and project-type problems—Included at the end of every chapter.
