Computer Techniques in Vibration

By Clarence W. De Silva

Book Overview

Understanding vibration behavior in modern systems is a complex task, requiring detailed mathematical models to evaluate the sources and effects of vibrations. Fortunately, there are a number of software tools available for modeling and analyzing this behavior. In chapters drawn from the highly popular Vibration and Shock Handbook, Computer Techniques in Vibration summarizes and demonstrates a variety of software applications, tools, and techniques used to explore mechanical vibrations. Compiling critical information into a convenient, thorough, and up-to-date source, expert contributors discuss finite element methods, fast Fourier transform, wavelet analysis, the use of MATLAB(R) toolboxes, and approaches to vibration signal analysis.
