Professor Schmitz has been working in mechanical vibrations for well over 15 years and has developed methods to enable mechanical engineers to apply vibrations fundamentals to common industrial problems. In addition he has assembled extensive course notes, case studies, exercises, problem sets and developed MATLAB code. A complete solutions manual is available as well.

• Introduction.- Single degree of freedom free vibration.- Single degree of freedom forced vibration.- Two degree of freedom free vibration.- Two degree of freedom forced vibration.- Model development by modal analysis.- Measurement techniques.- Continuous beam models.- Receptance coupling.- Appendix A: Orthogonality of eigenvectors.- Appendix B: Beam experimental platform.
