The fundamental knowledge of nonlinear analysis and control is essential to engineers for analysing and controlling nonlinear instability phenomena. This book bridges the gap between the mathematical expressions of nonlinear dynamics and the corresponding practical phenomena. Linear and Nonlinear Instabilities in Mechanical Systems: Analysis, Control and Application provides a detailed and informed insight into the fundamental methods for analysis and control for nonlinear instabilities from the practical point of view.

Key features:

Refers to the behaviours of practical mechanical systems such as aircraft, railway vehicle, robot manipulator, micro/nano sensor

Enhances the rigorous and practical understanding of mathematical methods from an engineering point of view

The theoretical results obtained by nonlinear analysis are interpreted by using accompanying videos on the real nonlinear behaviors of nonlinear mechanical systems

Linear and Nonlinear Instabilities in Mechanical Systems is an essential textbook for students on engineering courses, and can also be used for self-study or reference by engineers.

About the Author

HIROSHI YABUNO is Professor of Mechanical Engineering at University of Tsukuba in Japan. In 1990, he attained his Ph.D. in Engineering from Keio University, Japan and was appointed Professor at Keio University. He was a Visiting Scholar at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in 1997 and, in 2002 and 2008, he was a Visiting Professor at the University of Rome “La Sapienza”. He was also Chair of Working Party II (Dynamical Systems and Mechatronics) of IUTAM. He is an associate editor of international journals including Journal of Computational and Nonlinear Dynamics (ASME), Nonlinear Dynamics, Journal of Vibration and Control, and International Journal of Dynamics in Various Mechanical Systems and Control. His research interests include analysis and control of nonlinear dynamics and positive utilization of the nonlinear instability phenomena to mechanical systems in particular, micro/nano resonators.

Store Description

**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.
