"A beautiful copy of Random Vibration in Mechanical Systems by Stephen H. Crandall and William D. Mark, published by Academic Press. This is a classic specialized work in mechanical vibration and engineering statistics, addressing the behavior of mechanical systems subjected to random rather than deterministic vibration. Topics include random processes, Gaussian and stationary processes, spectral density, excitation-response relationships, single- and two-degree-of-freedom systems, and failure and fatigue resulting from random vibration. Stephen H. Crandall was a prominent MIT researcher in mechanics and vibration, and his work on random vibration became an important part of the technical literature. Crandall continued publishing significant research in the field, including work on first-passage problems and the response of oscillators to random excitation. Condition: Like New, with the exception of a small, neatly written ex-libris (ownership inscription) on the front free endpaper. The book is otherwise exceptionally clean and well preserved, with no other writing, highlighting, or markings noted. The binding and pages are in excellent condition. No dust jacket. Please see photographs for details. This copy comes from the same exceptionally well-maintained engineering collection as several other vintage technical books in this group. The neat, understated ownership inscription is the only indication of its previous owner; otherwise, the book has been remarkably well cared for. …
