FLOW-INDUCED VIBRATION OF POWER AND PROCESS PLANT COMPONENTS: A PRACTICAL WORKBOOK

Flow-Induced Vibration of Power and Process Plant Components: A Practical Workbook is an indispensable, single source of information on the most common flow-induced vibration problems in power and process plant components.

Based on the author''s own experience that most errors in engineering analysis come from confusions in the units, the author begins with a short chapter on units and dimensions. He then provides step-by-step examples in dual US and SI units, leading to the final objective of design analysis, problem solving, diagnosis and trouble shooting in the following areas:

Fundamentals of Vibration
Acoustics and Structural Dynamics
Vibration of Structures in Quiescent Fluids
Vortex-Induced Vibration
Turbulence-Induced Vibration
Impact, Fatigue and Wear Caused bu Flow-Induced Vibration
Acoustically-Induced Vibration
Signal Analysis and Diagnostic Techniques

Emphasis is placed on the physics of the phenomenon and most of the work examples can be solved with pocket calculators or spreadsheets.
