Provides sufficient breadth and depth to not only explain terminology but to supply the analytical and computational tools needed to analyze/design/troubleshoot related engineering problems. As shown in the attached table of contents, the book begins by introducing and providing the required math and computer skills for understanding and simulating nonlinear vibration problems. Embedded in this development is a thorough treatment of parametric vibrations which is of key standalone importance and also provides analytical tools for determining the stability of co-existing solution for the nonlinear forced vibration case.
Textbook on nonlinear and parametric vibrations discussing relevant terminology and analytical and computational tools for analysis, design, and troubleshooting
Introduction to Engineering Nonlinear and Parametric Vibrations with MATLAB and MAPLE is a comprehensive textbook that provides theoretical breadth and depth and analytical and computational tools needed to analyze, design, and troubleshoot related engineering problems.
The text begins by introducing and providing the required math and computer skills for understanding and simulating nonlinear vibration problems. This section also includes a thorough treatment of parametric vibrations.
Many illustrative examples, including software examples, are included throughout the text. A companion website includes the MATLAB and MAPLE codes for examples in the textbook, and a theoretical development for a homoclinic path to chaos.
Introduction to Engineering Nonlinear and Parametric Vibrations with MATLAB and MAPLE provides information on: Natural frequencies and limit cycles of nonlinear autonomous systems, covering the multiple time scale, Krylov-Bogellubov, harmonic balance, and Lindstedt-Poincare methods Co-existing fixed point equilibrium states of nonlinear systems, covering location, type, and stability, domains of attraction, and phase plane plotting Parametric and autoparametric vibration including Floquet, Mathieu and Hill theory Numerical methods including shooting, time domain collocation, arc length continuation, and Poincare plotting Chaotic motion of nonlinear systems, covering iterated maps, period doubling and homoclinic paths to chaos, and discrete and continuous time Lyapunov exponents Extensive MATLAB and MAPLE coding for the examples presented
Introduction to Engineering Nonlinear and Parametric Vibrations with MATLAB and MAPLE is an essential up-to-date textbook on the subject for upper level undergraduate and graduate engineering students as well as practicing vibration engineers. Knowledge of differential equations and basic programming skills are requisites for reading.
About the Author: Alan B. Palazzolo, James J. Cain Professor of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, USA. Professor Palazzolo has extensive industrial, research, and teaching experience in vibrations. He has taught graduate level courses in Nonlinear and Parametric Vibrations (MEEN 649) and Rotordynamics (MEEN 639). In addition, he has also held industrial positions at Bently Nevada, Southwest Research Institute and Allis Chalmers Corporation in these areas, and has performed approximately $21M in funded research. Dongil Shin, Lead Research Engineer at GE Vernova Advanced Research in Niskayuna, New York. Dongil has extensive experience in nonlinear vibration analysis of turbomachinery systems and has published multiple journal papers in this field. At GE Vernova, he specializes in tackling practical nonlinear vibration challenges in turbomachinery components, including blades, dampers, and bearings, with a focus on gas and steam turbine systems. Jeffrey Falzarano, Professor of Ocean Engineering, Texas A&M University, USA. Professor Falzarano has extensive research, teaching, and industry/government experience. He has taught undergraduate and graduate courses in vibrations and ship dynamics (seakeeping and ship maneuvering). He has held engineering and research positions in both government and industry. He has performed research funded by the Office of Naval Research, National Science Foundation, and other government and industry entities. He is also the 2022 recipient of the Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers Davidson Medal for excellence in ship research.

Additional Delivery Information (and some really important bits):
UK Delivery
Orders for delivery in the UK are normally despatched by Royal Mail, using the RM 48 Tracked Service with most orders delivered to you within a few days of placing your order with us. For larger parcels, Courier and Signed For delivery services may be used. Signed Books are shipped in our specially made book mailing cartons, with the books themselves wrapped in paper to protect them. Sometimes we may ship your order in several parts, particularly if you have 'Pre-Order' titles in your order or titles which are held in stock with our publishing partners.
The Really Important Bit: Because we use tracked, courier and signed for delivery services, please use an address at which your parcel can be received during the normal working day, for example, you may want to have your order delivered to your work address if you're not at home during the day.
First Item @ £3.75 (sometimes a shipping supplement may be added for particularly heavy books or specific postcodes*)
2 Items & over @ £5.00 in total
Another Really Important Bit: There are a number of Postcodes in the UK for which we will need to charge a shipping supplement, this will be calculated once we know the size and weight of the shipment. For these orders we will contact customers to agree a suitable and economic method of shipping. There may also be additional time required for delivery to some areas of the United Kingdom. Where possible, we will ship book orders (under 2kg) by Royal Mail to all UK postcodes. Large multiple book orders and books over 2kg are often shipped via APC Overnight or similar, regardless of Postcode.
Overseas Delivery
Shipments to EU countries:
First Item @ £15.00 (sometimes a shipping supplement will be added for particularly heavy books)
2 Items & over @ £30.00 in total
A really, really important Brexit bit: From 1st January 2021 shipments to EU addresses may incur additional costs which could be requested by Fed Ex at the time of delivery. These costs may vary from country to country and are not within our control and will be in addition to the costs paid to us for your delivery.
