Book Description

April 1997 0471970670 978-0471970675
Modal analysis is a discipline that has developed considerably during the last 30 years. Theoretical and Experimental Modal Analysis is a new book on modal analysis aimed at a wide range of readers, from academics such as post-graduate students and researchers, to engineers in many industries who use modal analysis tools and need to improve their knowledge of the subject. Divided into eight chapters, the book ranges from the basics of vibration theory and signal processing to more advanced topics, including identification techniques, substructural coupling, structural modification, updating of finite element models and nonlinear modal analysis. There is also an entire chapter dedicated to vibration testing techniques. It has been written with a diversity of potential readers in mind, so that all will be able to follow the book easily and assimilate the concepts involved.

4.0 out of 5 stars A perfect synthesis of modal analysis, March 26, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Theoretical and Experimental Modal Analysis (Mechanical Engineering Research Studies) (Paperback)
This book is definetly the most complete book that is possible to find for what concerns modal analysis. Great both for theorical basys it gives and from the practical point of view. Should be read by any engineer who wants to know about structural dynamics.
