Advanced Theory of Vibration:

by J.S. Rao

Addresses analytical and graphical methods, numerical techniques and stability analysis in a comprehensive manner with engineering examples at various stages in the text. Discusses the development of diverse theories, outlining the latest refinements to classical theories of bars, rods and beams. Features a number of case studies regarding axial vibration (including viscoelastic members) and torsional vibrations of noncircular cross section rods. Contains extensive coverage of lateral vibration of beams, Coriolis effects, nonlinear vibrations, pretwisted and sandwiched beams and much more.
