Vibrations and Stability : Advanced Theory, Analysis, and Tools
Ties together classical and modern topics of advanced vibration analysis in an interesting and lucid manner. It is intended for advanced students, university teachers, and researchers in mechanical/structural engineering dynamics, and professional engineers aiming at strengthening their theoretical foundation. Assuming background knowledge in elementary vibrations, it provides a set of useful tools for understanding and analyzing the more complex dynamical phenomena that can be met in engineering and scientific practice. Summarizing first basic linear vibration theory, it progresses over various types of nonlinearity and nonlinear interaction to bifurcation analysis, chaotic vibrations, and special high-frequency effects. It trains the student to analyze simple models, recognize nonlinear phenomena, and work with advanced tools such as perturbation analysis and bifurcation analysis
Nonlinear Structural Engineering : With Unique Theories and Methods to Solve Effectively Complex Nonlinear Problems
This book is aiming to concentrate on the nonlinear static and dynamic analysis of structures and structural components that are widely used in everyday engineering applications. It approaches a nonlinear problem by mathematically converting it into an exact equivalent pseudolinear one, in contrast to commonly used approaches which are based on linear concepts. The new concepts, theories and methods introduced in this book, simplify a great deal the solution of the complex nonlinear problems, and also allow for the correct usage of the powerful existing linear methods of analysis.
Chaos in Structural Mechanics
This volume introduces and reviews novel theoretical approaches to modeling strongly nonlinear behaviour of either individual or interacting structural mechanical units such as beams, plates and shells or composite systems thereof.
