This book introduces spectral analysis as a means of investigating
wave propagation and transient oscillations in structures. After
developing the foundations of spectral analysis and the fast
Fourier transform algorithm, the book provides a thorough treatment
of waves in rods, beams, and plates, and introduces a novel matrix
method for analysing complex structures as a collection of
waveguides. The presentation includes an introduction to
higher-order structural theories, the results of many experimental
studies, practical applications, and source-code listings for many
programs. An extensive bibliography provides an entry to the
research literature. Intended as a textbook for graduate students
of aerospace or mechanical engineering, the book will also be of
interest to practising engineers in these and related disciplines.
