Fundamentals of Vibration Analysis

Fundamentals of Vibration Analysis by Nils Otto Myklestad is a comprehensive guide to understanding the principles of vibration analysis. The book covers the fundamental concepts of mechanical vibrations, including the basic principles of vibration measurement, analysis, and control. It also provides an overview of the different types of vibration systems and their characteristics, as well as the various types of vibration signals that are commonly encountered in engineering applications.The book is divided into three parts. Part one provides an introduction to the basic principles of vibration analysis, including the different types of vibration signals, the Fourier transform, and the concept of frequency response. Part two covers the different types of vibration systems, including single-degree-of-freedom systems, multiple-degree-of-freedom systems, and continuous systems. This section also covers the principles of modal analysis and the different types of damping that can be used to control vibrations.Part three of the book covers advanced topics in vibration analysis, including nonlinear systems, random vibrations, and vibration testing. The book also includes a number of practical examples and case studies that illustrate the principles of vibration analysis in real-world applications.Overall, Fundamentals of Vibration Analysis is an essential resource for anyone involved in the design, analysis, or control of mechanical systems that are subject to vibration. It is suitable for both students and professionals in the fields of mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, and civil engineering.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
