Download or read book Isospectral Vibrating Systems written by Ranjan Ganguli and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-08-10 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an isospectral approach for several important mechanical vibrating systems. Discrete and continuous isospectral systems are discussed using a simple multi-degree of freedom spring-mass system followed by illustration of isospectral beams and their solution through evolutionary computing. Next, it addresses axially loaded Euler-Bernoulli beams and aims to find isospectral counterparts of these systems. The practical application of these isospectral systems for vibration testing and for finding new closed form solutions is discussed. A considerable part of the book is devoted to isospectral rotating beams and their non-rotating analogs including Rayleigh beams. Aimed at researchers and graduate students in mechanical; aerospace; civil; automotive; ocean engineering especially mechanical vibrations, this monograph: Discusses isospectral vibrating systems to aid vibration testing and computational analysis Explores isospectral analogs between rotating and non-rotating structures Provides simpler isospectral beams for vibration testing and for 3D printing Uses firefly optimization method and electromagnetism inspired optimization method to find isospectral systems Shows the use of isospectral systems to find new closed form solutions using an indirect approach

Download or read book Modern Practice in Stress and Vibration Analysis written by Matthew P. Cartmell and published by Trans Tech Publications Ltd. This book was released on 2003-11-15 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS). The trend towards the integration of modeling, analysis and design tools, which began in the 1990s, is now well underway, and it is becoming increasingly evident that formerly disparate engineering functions, such as stress analysis, fracture mechanics, elasticity and vibration analysis, will continue to move closer together, as seamlessly integrated computational design tools evolve. The series of Modern Practice in Stress and Vibration Analysis conferences has always reflected this alliance, with its tradition of encouraging specialist contributions to the development and enhanced application of powerful numerical methods; in conjunction with seminal papers on new techniques in experimental mechanics.
Download or read book Advances in the Theory of System Decoupling written by Rubens Gonçalves Salsa Junior and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-21 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a concise, clear, and consistent account of the methodology of phase synchronization, an extension of modal analysis to decouple any linear system in real space. It expounds on the novel theory of phase synchronization and presents recent advances, while also providing relevant background on classical decoupling theories that are used in structural analysis. The theory is illustrated with a broad range of examples. The theoretical development is also supplemented by applications to engineering problems. In addition, the methodology is implemented in a MATLAB algorithm which can be used to solve many of the illustrative examples in the book. This book is suited for researchers, practicing engineers, and graduate students in various fields of engineering, mathematics, and physical science.
Download or read book Inverse problems in vibration written by G.M.L. Gladwell and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last thing one settles in writing a book is what one should put in first. Pascal's Pensees Classical vibration theory is concerned, in large part, with the infinitesimal (i. e. , linear) undamped free vibration of various discrete or continuous bodies. One of the basic problems in this theory is the determination of the natural frequencies (eigen frequencies or simply eigenvalues) and normal modes of the vibrating body. A body which is modelled as a discrete system' of rigid masses, rigid rods, massless springs, etc. , will be governed by an ordinary matrix differential equation in time t. It will have a finite number of eigenvalues, and the normal modes will be vectors, called eigenvectors. A body which is modelled as a continuous system will be governed by a partial differential equation in time and one or more spatial variables. It will have an infinite number of eigenvalues, and the normal modes will be functions (eigen functions) of the space variables. In the context of this classical theory, inverse problems are concerned with the construction of a model of a given type; e. g. , a mass-spring system, a string, etc. , which has given eigenvalues and/or eigenvectors or eigenfunctions; i. e. , given spec tral data. In general, if some such spectral data is given, there can be no system, a unique system, or many systems, having these properties.

Download or read book Introduction to Isospectrality written by Alberto Arabia and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-09-13 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Can one hear the shape of a drum?" This striking question, made famous by Mark Kac, conceals a precise mathematical problem, whose study led to sophisticated mathematics. This textbook presents the theory underlying the problem, for the first time in a form accessible to students. Specifically, this book provides a detailed presentation of Sunada's method and the construction of non-isometric yet isospectral drum membranes, as first discovered by Gordon–Webb–Wolpert. The book begins with an introductory chapter on Spectral Geometry, emphasizing isospectrality and providing a panoramic view (without proofs) of the Sunada–Bérard–Buser strategy. The rest of the book consists of three chapters. Chapter 2 gives an elementary treatment of flat surfaces and describes Buser's combinatorial method to construct a flat surface with a given group of isometries (a Buser surface). Chapter 3 proves the main isospectrality theorems and describes the transplantation technique on Buser surfaces. Chapter 4 builds Gordon–Webb–Wolpert domains from Buser surfaces and establishes their isospectrality. Richly illustrated and supported by four substantial appendices, this book is suitable for lecture courses to students having completed introductory graduate courses in algebra, analysis, differential geometry and topology. It also offers researchers an elegant, self-contained reference on the topic of isospectrality.
Download or read book Inverse Problems in Vibration written by G.M.L. Gladwell and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-01-14 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the first, 1986, edition of this book, inverse problems in vibration were interpreted strictly: problems concerning the reconstruction of a unique, undamped vibrating system, of a specified type, from specified vibratory behaviour, particularly specified natural frequencies and/or natural mode shapes. In this new edition the scope of the book has been widened to include topics such as isospectral systems- families of systems which all exhibit some specified behaviour; applications of the concept of Toda flow; new, non-classical approaches to inverse Sturm-Liouville problems; qualitative properties of the modes of some finite element models; damage identification. With its emphasis on analysis, on qualitative results, rather than on computation, the book will appeal to researchers in vibration theory, matrix analysis, differential and integral equations, matrix analysis, non-destructive testing, modal analysis, vibration isolation, etc. "This book is a necessary addition to the library of engineers and mathematicians working in vibration theory."
