5.0 out of 5 stars The Original Work Defining SEA
This is "the book" that defines the theoretical development of Statistical Energy Analysis. It includes the basic approach to modeling dynamical systems when the number of degrees of freedom becomes "intractable" = large. Prof Lyon includes the key examples and early development of the theory. After many years of using it - it works!! There are excellent modeling...

3.0 out of 5 stars Cheap!
The content of this book is fine, however it is very cheaply produced, a taped binding that will not last very long and the pages are photocopied. For that alone it isn't worth ... The cover is only slighty heavier than the pages. If you can find a second hand or library copy that hasn't disintergrated, read that instead.

This is "the book" that defines the theoretical development of Statistical Energy Analysis. It includes the basic approach to modeling dynamical systems when the number of degrees of freedom becomes "intractable" = large. Prof Lyon includes the key examples and early development of the theory. After many years of using it - it works!! There are excellent modeling guidelines. Warning - this book is not for the casual reader.

This review is from: Theory and Application of Statistical Energy Analysis, Second Edition (Hardcover)
This book is too dense. Even after I read it several times, I still have no idea how to perform SEA properly
