Signals, Oscillations, and Waves: A Modern Approach / Edition 1

by D E Vakman, David Vakman

Overview

Fortify your knowledge of the amplitudes and frequencies associated with analytic signals and waves, and understand their role in the solution of difficult engineering and physical problems with this practical new book. It shows you how to employ one universal new method in solving challenging engineering problems related to signal processing, wave propagation, electrical and electronics engineering, mechanical and seismic oscillations, acoustics, and other areas. In clear, easy-to-understand language, and with the help of more than 1000 equations, the author illustrates how this practical approach is used to work out both new and classic problems more accurately than traditional methods.

Editorial Reviews

Vakmann, formerly a Russian research scientist out of Moscow Aviation University, describes how the amplitude and frequency of signals and waves influences engineering problems in such fields as signal processing, seismic oscillations, and wave propagation. Throughout his discussion he demonstrates how a conceptual framework that views signals as both local and global events solves many important problems, even classical problems, more efficiently than other methods.
