Nonlinear OscillationsAuthor(s): Ali H. Nayfeh, Dean T. Mook\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, Germany\nImprint: Blackwell Verlag GmbH\nISBN-13: 9783527414543, 978-3527414543\nSynopsis\nNonlinear Oscillations is a self-contained and thorough treatment of the vigorous research that has occurred in nonlinear mechanics since 1970. The book begins with fundamental concepts and techniques of analysis and progresses through recent developments and provides an overview that abstracts and introduces main nonlinear phenomena. It treats systems having a single degree of freedom, introducing basic concepts and analytical methods, and extends concepts and methods to systems having degrees of freedom. Most of this material cannot be found in any other text. Nonlinear Oscillations uses simple physical examples to explain nonlinear dispersive and nondispersive waves. The notation is unified and the analysis modified to conform to discussions. Solutions are worked out in detail f.
