About the Author

Michael B. Spektor taught for many years at Oregon Institute of Technology, and before retiring he was the director of the manufacturing engineering technology bachelor degree program at Boeing in Seattle. He has an undergraduate degree in mechanical engineering from Kiev Polytechnic University and a Ph. D. in mechanical engineering from Kiev Construction University. He has worked in both industry and higher education in the United States, Israel, and the former Soviet Union. Spektor holds five U.S. Patents and two U.S.S.R. Inventor’s Certificates. Some of his career highlights include: chief designer of an automobile crane; the design and development of vibratory and impact machines; an analysis of the dynamics of construction safety harnesses that directly led to their improvement; developer of the theory and engineering calculations for the optimization of soil-working vibratory processes for minimum energy consumption; analytical investigations of media deformation under dynamic loading that improved the methodologies for measuring and interpreting experimental data; and the publication of numerous scientific articles on dynamics.
