An in-depth introduction to the foundations of vibrations for
students of mechanical engineering For students pursuing their
education in Mechanical Engineering, An Introduction to Mechanical
Vibrations is a definitive resource. The text extensively covers
foundational knowledge in the field and uses it to lead up to and
include: finite elements, the inerter, Discrete Fourier Transforms,
flow-induced vibrations, and self-excited oscillations in rail
vehicles. The text aims to accomplish two things in a single,
introductory, semester-length, course in vibrations. The primary
goal is to present the basics of vibrations in a manner that
promotes understanding and interest while building a foundation of
knowledge in the field. The secondary goal is to give students a
good understanding of two topics that are ubiquitous in today's
engineering workplace - finite element analysis (FEA) and Discrete
Fourier Transforms (the DFT- most often seen in the form of the
Fast Fourier Transform or FFT). FEA and FFT software tools are
readily available to both students and practicing engineers and
they need to be used with understanding and a degree of caution.
While these two subjects fit nicely into vibrations, this book
presents them in a way that emphasizes understanding of the
underlying principles so that students are aware of both the power
and the limitations of the methods. In addition to covering all the
topics that make up an introductory knowledge of vibrations, the
book includes: End of chapter exercises to help students review key
topics and definitions Access to sample data files, software, and
animations via a dedicated website
