The purpose of this book is to place a resource in the hands of
experimental mechanics researchers to enable them to understand and
to obtain a working familiarity with certain of the numerical
methods particularly useful to the field. The book is organized to
permit readers to study the methods and to observe their
application in experimental problems. It is also intended to
encourage readers to directly apply the methods to the same
problems or to similar problems of their choosing. To this end,
computer programs are available electronically, together with data,
for easy application. Program listings are given in the appendix.
There are four chapters which make up the central coverage of the
text. The first of these deals with least-square methods of problem
solution, both for curve fitting and for general solution of
overdetermined problems. Nonlinear least-squares methods are
included. Secondly, splines; specifically smoothed splines, are
covered, including specification of boundary conditions for the
latter. Use for differentiation is emphasized with attention to
control of possible excesses in smoothing. Transform methods are
the third major area covered; both the Discrete Fourier Transform
and the Fast Fourier Transform. Their combined use is described for
appropriate problems. Finally, digital filters are included,
principally the Butterworth low pass filter. Coverage also includes
different filter orders, high pass filters and the two-pass filter
technique. The author has had experience with the four areas
covered and with all ofthe example problems described in the text.
