Mechanical Systems: A Unified Approach to Vibrations and Controls
Author: Roger F. Gans | Size: 10 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: Springer International Publishing | Year: 2015 | pages: 437 | ISBN: 9783319083704
This essential textbook concerns analysis and control of engineering mechanisms, which includes almost any apparatus with moving parts used in daily life, from musical instruments to robots. A particular characteristic of this book is that it presents with considerable breadth and rigor both vibrations and controls. Many contemporary texts combine both of these topics in a single, one term course. This text supports the more favorable circumstance where the material is covered in a one year sequence contains enough material for a two semester sequence, but it can also be used in a single semester course combining two topics. “Mechanical Systems: A Unified Approach to Vibrations and Controls” presents a common notation and approach to these closely related areas. Examples from the both vibrations and controls components are integrated throughout this text.

Structural Vibration: A Uniform Accurate Solution for Laminated Beams, Plates and Shells with General Boundary Conditions
Author(s): Guoyong Jin, Tiangui Ye, Zhu Su | Size: 10 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg | Year: 2015 | pages: 312 | ISBN: 9783662463635
This book develops a uniform accurate method which is capable of dealing with vibrations of laminated beams, plates and shells with arbitrary boundary conditions including classical boundaries, elastic supports and their combinations. It also provides numerous solutions for various configurations including various boundary conditions, laminated schemes, geometry and material parameters, which fill certain gaps in this area of reach and may serve as benchmark solutions for the readers.
For each case, corresponding fundamental equations in the framework of classical and shear deformation theory are developed. Following the fundamental equations, numerous free vibration results are presented for various configurations including different boundary conditions, laminated sequences and geometry and material properties. The proposed method and corresponding formulations can be readily extended to static analysis.

Author(s)/Editor(s): Singiresu S. Rao | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: John Wiley & Sons | Year: 2007 | pages: 720 | ISBN: 978-0471771715
Successful vibration analysis of continuous structural elements and systems requires a knowledge of material mechanics, structural mechanics, ordinary and partial differential equations, matrix methods, variational calculus, and integral equations. Fortunately, leading author Singiresu Rao has created Vibration of Continuous Systems, a new book that provides engineers, researchers, and students with everything they need to know about analytical methods of vibration analysis of continuous structural systems.
Featuring coverage of strings, bars, shafts, beams, circular rings and curved beams, membranes, plates, and shells-as well as an introduction to the propagation of elastic waves in structures and solid bodies-Vibration of Continuous Systems presents:
* Methodical and comprehensive coverage of the vibration of different types of structural elements
* The exact analytical and approximate analytical methods of analysis
* Fundamental concepts in a straightforward manner, complete with illustrative examples
With chapters that are independent and self-contained, Vibration of Continuous Systems is the perfect book that works as a one-semester course, self-study tool, and convenient reference.

Hey All,
I am looking for the following book. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Title: Tables for the hydraulic design of pipes, sewers and channels 8 Edt. Vol 1 & 2
ISBN: 0 7277 3355 9
Published by Thomas Telford Publishing
This book introduces a general approach for schematization of mechanical systems with rigid and deformable bodies. It proposes a systems approach to reproduce the interaction of the mechanical system with different force fields such as those due to the action of fluids or contact forces between bodies, i.e., with forces dependent on the system states, introducing the concepts of the stability of motion. In the first part of the text mechanical systems with one or more degrees of freedom with large motion and subsequently perturbed in the neighborhood of the steady state position are analyzed. Both discrete and continuous systems (modal approach, finite elements) are analyzed. The second part is devoted to the study of mechanical systems subject to force fields, the rotor dynamics, techniques of experimental identification of the parameters and random excitations. The book will be especially valuable for students of engineering courses in Mechanical Systems, Aerospace, Automation and Energy but will also be useful for professionals. The book is made accessible to the widest possible audience by numerous, solved examples and diagrams that apply the principles to real engineering applications.
Table of contents :
Front Matter....Pages i-xxii
Nonlinear Systems with 1-n Degrees of Freedom....Pages 1-81
The Dynamic Behaviour of Discrete Linear Systems....Pages 83-240
