Reseña del libro "Applied Dynamics in Engineering (Volume 1) (en Inglés)"
This book is primarily a guide for professionals and can be used by students of Dynamics. It features 96 real-life problems in dynamics that are common in all engineering fields; including industrial, mechanical and electrical. And it uses a special table guide that allows the reader to find the solution to each specific problem. The descriptions of the solutions of problems are presented in the chapters 3 to 18. Features - The analysis of the structure of the differential equation of motion, as well as the analysis of the components that constitute this equation presented in the Chapter 1 allow readers to understand the principles of composing the differential equation of motion for actual engineering systems. - Presents the straightforward universal methodology of solving linear differential equations of motion based on the Laplace transform. - The table of Laplace Transform pairs presented in the Chapter 1 is based on reviewing numerous related analytical sources and represents a comprehensive source containing sufficient information for solving the differential equations of motion for common engineering systems. - Helps determine the number of possible common engineering problems based on the analysis of the structure of the differential equation of motion, as well as on the realistic resisting and active loading factors that constitute the differential equation of motion. - Each paragraph represents a standalone description. There is no need to look for notations or analytical techniques throughout the book. The book contains all required supplemental information for solving the problems. In his two-book, combined presentation of dynamics, Applied Dynamics in Engineering (2016) and Solving Engineering Problems in Dynamics (2014), Dr. Michael Spektor sets up, for anyone interested in the subject, a unique approach, facilitating an intuitive understanding of dynamics in application to design. Rather than a traditional vector approach to the topic, he presents a linear systems treatment. There are many advantages of this approach, especially as an introductory course in dynamic system analysis and design and particularly in an engineering technology curriculum where a student has only one semester's exposure to the subject. Of advantage to students is how Spektor progresses from the most fundamental dynamic system configurations of inertial mass, spring compliance, and friction to those of wide application in machinery. With Dr. Spektor's presentation of dynamical concepts, the design implications are always front and center. The student proceeds through fully documented and extraordinarily detailed examples of every applicable system. All mathematical detail is related to the Laplace Transform solution of linear differential equations, which has universal application in measurement, instrumentation, and electric circuitry. Unavoidable mathematical complexities also are covered in the shorter companion volume. For engineering technology students, this approach to learning dynamics directly builds on and parallels the formal mathematical training they are applying in other analytical subjects. I would have loved it if this book had been available when I was first learning dynamics, and I look forward adopting it in an Engineering Technology curriculum.--Carl Wolf, Project Manager, Small Step Innovation, LLC The book Applied Dynamics in Engineering by Michael Spektor, presents the solutions for engineering problems in a variety of applied topics.
