Optimal Protection from Impact, Shock and Vibration

by Dimitry V Balandin, Nikolai N. Bolotnik, Walter D. Pilkey

Overview

Systems that provide protection from impact, shock and vibration are held up by sophisticated physical principles. In this volume, the author explores those principles in a straightforward manner. All aspects of the theory of optimal isolation are presented, from a description of the systems that use these principles to the design of such systems a

Editorial Reviews

This book could be used as text for a specialized graduate-level course following a graduate course in dynamics and vibration, as well as a basic course in control theory in which the state-space representation of systems is introduced. The practicing engineer working on protective systems and structures from impulsive loads and vibrations should also find the book useful as a valuable reference...Libraries should seriously consider the title for their collection..
