Description

Book Synopsis
An introduction to the mathematical basis of finite element analysis as applied to vibrating systems. Finite element analysis is a technique that is very important in modeling the response of structures to dynamic loads and is widely used in aeronautical, civil, and mechanical engineering as well as naval architecture.

Trade Review
"The contents of this work are very well organized, and Petyt (Univ. of Southhamption, UK) gradually introduces important concepts, making it a very useful theoretical reference." X. Le, Wentworth Institute of Technology
