Solved Problems in Nonlinear Oscillations: A sourcebook for scientists and engineers

by Zeng He, Wen Jiang, Lin Wang

Overview

This is an open access book. This textbook contains about 200 fully solved problems in analytical and numerical methods for nonlinear osccillations. These comprise all the end-of-chapter problems in Ali H. Nayfeh and Dean T. Mook’s famous textbook Nonliear Oscillations. Mathematical software are adopted to make those solutions more accessible from a graphical point of view. This book can be adopted as a supplement to course work study for graduates or senior undergraduates. Since many exercise problems are adapted from scientific research papers, this book also has a good reference value for scientists and engineers who work in nonlinear vibration.
