A Student's Guide to Vectors and Tensors
Cambridge University Press 2011; US$ 24.00Explains vectors and tensors in plain language to give undergraduate and beginning graduate students a better understanding. more...
Vibration Simulation Using MATLAB and ANSYS
CRC Press 2000; US$ 129.95Incorporating the use of software to help with the solution of problems, this work explores vibration from a mathematical point of view. The author develops the associated equations of motion, then in each chapter includes both a closed-form solution and the MATLAB code for solving a problem. more...
Rotating Machinery
Taylor & Francis 2003; US$ 94.95A theoretical and practical understanding of unbalance and misalignment in rotating equipment is presented here. These two conditions account for the vast majority of problems with rotating equipment encountered in the real world.;Numerous examples and so more...
Fundamentals of Kinematics and Dynamics of Machines and Mechanisms
CRC Press 2000; US$ 199.95Having taught kinematics and dynamics to mechanical engineering students for many years, Vinogradov (mechanical engineering, U. of Calgary) thought that the conventional approach did not allow students to develop a perception of a mechanism as a whole and an understanding of it as an integral part of the design process. Then he discovered the Mathe more...
Multibody Dynamics
Springer 2007; US$ 129.99The ECCOMAS Thematic Conference Multibody Dynamics 2005 was held in Madrid. This book contains the selected conference communications, representing the state-of-the-art in the advances on computational multibody models, from the most abstract mathematical developments to practical engineering applications. more...
Kinematics and Dynamics of Multibody Systems with Imperfect Joints
Springer 2008; US$ 139.99The primary goal of this book is to present suitable methodologies for dynamic analysis of multibody mechanical systems with imperfect or real joints, that is, considering clearances, including their tribological characteristics and surface compliance properties. Two and three-dimensional methodologies for imperfect kinematic joints with and without... more...
Dynamics of Machinery
Springer 2010; US$ 109.99Dynamic loads and disturbing oscillations increase with higher speed of the machines and more lightweight constructions. Industrial safety standards require better oscillation reduction and noise control. The book by Dresig/Holzweissig deals with these topics. It presents the classical areas of modeling, dynamics of rigid bodies, balancing, torsional... more...
Practical Balancing of Rotating Machinery
Elsevier Science 2011; US$ 125.95Rotating machinery (eg pumps, motors, compressors) is normally manufactured to precise measurements but there comes a point when the costs of manufacture mean that further precision is not cost-effective and thus any slight imbalance inherent in the machine will need to be attended to after manufacture. When such machinery is in operation, often at... more...
Shaft Alignment Handbook
Taylor & Francis 2007; US$ 169.95Now in its third edition, Piotrowski's bestselling Shaft Alignment Handbook is still the most trusted and widely embraced guide in the field. This edition was reorganized, updated, and expanded to be more convenient, intuitive, and to reflect the latest developments in the area. Dedicated chapters now discuss the basics of modeling, each of the five... more...
Practical Machinery Vibration Analysis and Predictive Maintenance
Elsevier Science 2004; US$ 70.95Machinery Vibration Analysis and Predictive Maintenance provides a detailed examination of the detection, location and diagnosis of faults in rotating and reciprocating machinery using vibration analysis. The basics and underlying physics of vibration signals are first examined. The acquisition and processing of signals is then reviewed followed by... more...
