Overview

Serving as both a text and reference manual, Engineering Vibration provides a thorough introduction to vibration and modal analysis, design-oriented topics, measurement, and the use of computational codes with MATLAB(R). Special-interest windows summarize essential information and help remind you of prior or background information pertinent to the topic at hand, so you don't have to search for formulas or other information. The author provides an unequaled combination of the study of conventional vibration with the use of additional topics on design, measurement, and computation to help you develop a dynamic understanding of vibration phenomena and connect theory to practice. The 5th Edition has been updated with improved clarity of explanations as well as new examples, problems, figures, equations, and enhanced problem statements. All MATLAB codes cited in the text have been updated to 2020 standards. A new units and conversion appendix helps you understand the importance of being able to switch between units as the globalization of engineering increases.

Author Information

About our author Daniel J. Inman received his Ph.D. from Michigan State University in Mechanical Engineering in 1980 and is the Harm Buning Collegiate Professor in the Department of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Michigan and former department chair (2011 to 2018). Since 1980, he has published 8 books (on vibration, energy harvesting, control, statics, and dynamics), 8 software manuals, 20 book chapters, over 390 journal papers and 690 proceedings papers, given 72 keynote or plenary lectures, graduated 67 Ph.D. students and supervised more than 75 MS degrees. He is the Editor in Chief of the Journal of Intelligent Material Systems and Structures and works in the area of applying smart structures to solve aerospace engineering problems including energy harvesting, structural health monitoring, vibration suppression and morphing aircraft. He was formerly Technical Editor of the Shock and Vibration Digest (1998 to 2001) and Technical Editor of the journal, Shock and Vibration (1999 to 2004). He has served as Technical Editor of ASME Journal of Vibration and Acoustics (1990 to 1999) and as Associate Editor of the following: ASME Journal of Vibration and Acoustics (1986 to 1989), ASME Journal of Applied Mechanics (1988 to 1994), Mechanics of Machines and Structures (1986 to 1998) and International Journal of Analytical and Experimental Modal Analysis (1986 to 1990). He has won numerous awards in his field, including the ASME Den Hartog Award for lifetime achievement in teaching and research in vibration (2007), the AIAA Structures, Structural Dynamics, and Materials Award (2014) and the 2015 Rayleigh Lecture award (from the ASME Noise Control and Acoustics Division). He is a Fellow of AIAA, ASME, IIAV, SEM and AAM.
