Product Description

Product Description

For undergraduate courses in Vibration Engineering.

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.



From the Back Cover

While presenting theory, computational aspects, and applications of vibrations in as simple a manner as possible, this book serves as an introduction to the subject of vibration engineering. As in previous editions, Rao emphasizes computer techniques of analysis. The third edition features expanded explanations of the fundamentals, emphasizing physical significance and interpretation that build upon previous experience in mechanics.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Source of Information- Highly Recommended, 15 May 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Mechanical Vibrations (Hardcover)
This is one of the best books, I've found on Mechanical Vibrations. As a 12 year, Ph.D. veteran in field Mechanical Engineering, I highly recommend this book to advanced undergraduates and graduates. I found the ones who complain about a book or totally disregard it are the ones who have poor academic ability or are below average students. There is no other book that explains very complicated subject of Mechanical Vibrations as well as this Book By Singiresu Rao. He is an excellent author coming from Purdue university. His book has been used in academic field since its first edition in 1986. He uses delightful examples to simplify the subject. I also find his biography of various scientist whom contributed to the field of vibrations fascinating. He also gives out FORTRAN computer codes which stimulate students learning. This briefly sums an expert's opinion.

1.0 out of 5 stars Save your money for something else, 22 Mar 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Mechanical Vibrations (Hardcover)
This book is one of the worst I have ever read. Although it seems well structured and covers many materials, the overall content just overwhelms the undergraduate student will many details and forces them to lose the whole point. The bottomline: buy it if you're a professor and knows the materials. But don't buy it if you ever want to learn vibrations extremely extremely well. I have to go search for another text to understand really what is going on. Better off without it....other than using it as a hw problem book.
