Introduction to experimental nonlinear dynamics: A case study in mechanical vibration

Book · January 1, 2019 Nonlinear behavior can be found in such highly disparate areas as population biology and aircraft wing flutter. Largely because of this extensive reach, nonlinear dynamics and chaos have become very active fields of study and research. This book uses an ex ... Full text Cite

Vibration of axially loaded structures

Book · January 1, 2007 This book concerns the vibration and the stability of slender structural components. The loss of stability of structures is an important aspect of structural mechanics and is presented here in terms of dynamic behavior. A variety of structural components a ... Full text Cite
