Mechanical Wave Vibrations: Analysis and Control

Mechanical Wave Vibrations

An elegant and accessible exploration of the fundamentals of the analysis and control of vibration in structures from a wave standpoint

In Mechanical Wave Vibrations: Analysis and Control, Professor Chunhui Mei delivers an expert discussion of the wave analysis approach (as opposed to the modal-based approach) to mechanical vibrations in structures. The book begins with deriving the equations of motion using the Newtonian approach based on various sign conventions before comprehensively covering the wave vibration analysis approach. It concludes by exploring passive and active feedback control of mechanical vibration waves in structures.

The author discusses vibration analysis and control strategies from a wave standpoint and examines the applications of the presented wave vibration techniques to structures of various complexity. Readers will find in the book:

• A thorough introduction to mechanical wave vibration analysis, including the governing equations of various types of vibrations
• Comprehensive explorations of waves in simple rods and beams, including advanced vibration theories
• Practical discussions of coupled waves in composite and curved beams
• Extensive coverage of wave mode conversions in built-up planar and spatial frames and networks
• Complete treatments of passive and active feedback wave vibration control
• MATLAB^(R) scripts both in the book and in a companion solutions manual for instructors

Mechanical Wave Vibrations: Analysis and Control is written as a textbook for both under-graduate and graduate students studying mechanical, aerospace, automotive, and civil engineering. It will also benefit researchers and educators working in the areas of vibrations and waves.

機械波振動

從波的角度探索結構中振動的分析和控制的基礎的優雅且易於理解的探索

在《機械波振動：分析與控制》中，梅春輝教授專業地討論了從波的角度（而非基於模態的方法）分析結構中機械振動的方法。本書首先使用牛頓方法基於不同的符號約定推導出運動方程，然後全面介紹了波振動分析方法。最後，探討了結構中機械振動波的被動和主動反饋控制。

作者從波的角度討論了振動分析和控制策略，並探討了所提出的波振動技術在各種複雜結構中的應用。本書包含以下內容：

• 徹底介紹機械波振動分析，包括各種類型振動的運動方程


• 全面探討簡單桿和梁中的波，包括高級振動理論


• 實用討論複合和彎曲梁中的耦合波


• 廣泛涵蓋平面和空間框架和網絡中的波模式轉換


• 完整介紹被動和主動反饋波振動控制


• 書中和附帶的解答手冊中的MATLAB^(R)腳本

《機械波振動：分析與控制》是為機械、航空、汽車和土木工程的本科和研究生學生撰寫的教科書。同時也對從事振動和波領域的研究人員和教育工作者有益。
