Selected Dynamical Problems in Mechanical Systems: Theory and Applications in Transport

Glossy hardcover, xiv + 216 pages, numerous (mostly colour) figures in text, author index, NOT ex-library. Clean, bright, tight, with unmarked text. Minor very mild internal creasing. A gentle spine lean. Published without a dust jacket. --- This monograph is intended to introduce the reader to modern problems of transport and the related sciences. As far as technological problems are concerned, the subject matter taken up in particular chapters can be grouped into the following fields: dynamics of rail/road vehicles and interaction of the vehicle with the track/road, micro-dynamics and contact issues in such problems, monitoring of phenomena in mechanical systems - methods of measurement and analysis of the signals, control and optimization in studies of dynamics of mechanical systems, as well as problems related to design of machines and devices.
