by Ewins, D. J.
fromEngineering dynamics series
"In this book, all the steps involved in planning, executing, interpreting and applying the results from a modal test are described in straightforward terms. The content ensures that the reader understands the physics of the various stages as well as the mathematics."--[Source i…
Modal testing is practised in all engineering disciplines where vibration and other dynamic phenomena affect the performance of structures and machines. Here the steps involved in interpreting and applying the results from modal tests are described.
Finite Element and Boundary Methods in Structural Acoustics and Vibration provides a unique and in-depth presentation of the finite element method (FEM) and the boundary element method (BEM) in structural acoustics and vibrations. It illustrates the principles using a logical an…
