Elements of Vibration Analysis by Leonard Meirovitch presents a thorough treatment of the fundamental principles of vibration in mechanical and structural systems. The book covers single- and multi-degree-of-freedom systems, free and forced vibrations, damping, and modal analysis, with a strong emphasis on mathematical formulation and physical interpretation. Widely regarded as a classic text, …
Introduction to Dynamics and Control by Leonard Meirovitch provides a comprehensive and unified treatment of the mathematical modeling of physical systems and the subsequent design of control systems to govern their dynamic behavior. The text covers essential topics such as Newtonian and Lagrangian mechanics, system response in both time and frequency domains, and the principles of feedback con…
