About this title

Synopsis

Features aspects and solutions of problems of linear vibrating systems with a finite number of degrees of freedom. Starts with development of necessary tools in matrix theory, followed by numerical procedures for relevant matrix formulations and relevant theory of differential equations. Minimum of mathematical abstraction; assumes a familiarity with matrix theory, elementary calculus. 1966 edition.

Synopsis

Originally appearing in 1966, this book considers several aspects of and solutions to the problems of linear vibrating systems with a finite number of degrees of freedom. The book assumes a familiarity with matrix theory and elementary calculus, but relies on a minimum of mathematical abstraction. Lancaster teaches at the University of Calgary. Ann
