Advanced Vibration Controlling Techniques

ADVANCED VIBRATION CONTROLLING TECHNIQUES provides thorough knowledge of Energy Based Analytically Methods (EBAM) and Finite Element Methods (FEM). Finite element analysis was done on different beams with different layer damping treatments and the results are obtained by simulation in MATLAB. The obtained results are in close approximation with experimental values. Students will be benefited with advanced and sophisticated techniques to control vibrations in various fields. Key Features: * Different techniques, such as, piezoelectric materials are discussed to suppress the vibrations of stationary as well as rotating beams. * Discusses helicopters, airplanes, space vehicles etc., where weight of the structure is of critical constraint for attenuating vibrations. * All the results are presented in the form of figures, explaining the effect of different layer damping techniques with various boundary conditions of beams.
