Vibration Mechanics

Abstract

Vibration refers to the oscillatory motion of a body or a mechanical/structural system about its equilibrium position. It was one of the earliest physical phenomena that ancient scholars observed and studied, and is one of the most important dynamic problems that engineers today need to solve for designing, manufacturing/constructing and operating a great variety of industrial products. As a consequence, vibration has been a kind of popular engineering problems.
