Download or read book Nonlinear Dynamical Systems in Engineering written by Vasile Marinca and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-01-05 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents and extend different known methods to solve different types of strong nonlinearities encountered by engineering systems. A better knowledge of the classical methods presented in the first part lead to a better choice of the so-called “base functions”. These are absolutely necessary to obtain the auxiliary functions involved in the optimal approaches which are presented in the second part. Every chapter introduces a distinct approximate method applicable to nonlinear dynamical systems. Each approximate analytical approach is accompanied by representative examples related to nonlinear dynamical systems from to various fields of engineering.
