Description
This book provides a detailed overview of the theory of analytical and experimental modal analysis and its applications. Modal Analysis
is the processes of determining the inherent dynamic characteristics of any system and using them to formulate a mathematical model of
the dynamic behavior of the system. In the past two decades it has become a major technological tool in the quest for determining, improving
and optimizing dynamic characteristics of engineering structures.
Its main application is in mechanical and aeronautical engineering,
but it is also gaining widespread use in civil and structural engineering, biomechanical problems, space structures, acoustic instruments
and nuclear engineering.
Audience:
Undergraduate, postgraduate and professional mechanical, aeronautical, automotive and marine engineers
