Vibrations and Waves, G.C. King
Vibrations and Waves is based on an introductory course given regularly by the author. The text provides the student with a thorough grounding in the theory of vibrations and waves.
Throughout the book, the fundamental principles of vibrations and waves are emphasised so that these principles can be applied to a wide range of oscillating systems and to different kinds of waves.
The text, which is divided into two sections, vibrations followed by waves, follows a logical progression from the simple harmonic oscillator to waves in continuous media.
Vibrations and Waves includes:
- Vibrations and waves beautifully and concisely described in terms of the mathematical equations used throughout the book
- Worked examples throughout
- Problems ranging in difficulty from simple to challenging
Solutions and hints to the problems at the end of the book
