Widely acclaimed for its clear presentation of introductory material, this best-selling volume provides a thorough treatment of vibration theory and its engineering applications. Thomson incorporates modern techniques of matrix theory and digital computer methods, and focuses on the physical aspects of the mathematical concepts needed to describe the vibration phenomena. Numerous examples illustrate applications to typical problems faced by practicing engineers. In addition, simple and effective computer techniques such as the Central Difference Method, the Runge-Kutta Methods, and the Choleski-Jacoby Methods are explored. Fourth Edition Highlights: + NEW: Features a new chapter on computational methods that presents the basic principles on which most modern computer programs are developed (Ch. 8) + NEW: Introduces an example on rotor balancing (Ch. 8) and expands the section on shock spectrum and isolation (Ch. 4) + NEW: Emphasizes the importance of normal mode vibration to demonstrate that all free vibrations are composed of normal mode vibrations, and that the initial conditions play a determining influence in free vibrations (Ch. 5) + NEW: Reorganizes the coverage on the properties of vibrating systems for a more logical presentation (Ch. 6) + NEW: Adds coverage of the method of assumed modes (Ch. 7) + NEW: Incorporates a new section on suspension bridges to illustrate the application of the continuous system theory to simplified models for the calculation of natural frequencies (Ch. 9) + NEW: Consolidates the chapters on mode summation procedures for continuous systems approximate numerical methods and numerical procedures for lumped mass systems into two chapters (Ch. 11 & 12).
