Modeling and Analysis of Dynamic Systems
Acoustics of Small Rooms
Second Edition Ramin S. Esfandiari and Bei Lu California State University, Long Beach, USA
The goal of this second edition is essentially the same as that of the first edition: to provide the reader with a thorough knowledge of mathematical modeling and analysis of dynamic systems. MATLAB®, Simulink®, and Simscape are introduced at the outset and are utilized throughout the book to perform symbolic, graphical, numerical, and simulation tasks. The textbook, written at junior level, meticulously covers techniques for modeling dynamic systems, methods of response analysis, and in introduction to vibration and control systems. Catalog no. K16666, May 2014, 566 pp. ISBN: 978-1-4665-7493-9, $139.95 / £89.00 Also available as an eBook

Applied Structural and Mechanical Vibrations Theory and Methods, Second Edition Paolo L. Gatti Consulting Structural Engineer, Italy
Mendel Kleiner Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden
Jiri Tichy The Pennsylvania State University, USA
The acoustics of small spaces are quite different to those of large spaces. Tackling the specific aspects of physics, sound perception, and applications for small spaces, this book brings together the important themes of small room acoustics. It covers sound propagation—the effects of boundaries, sound absorbers and time conditions, physiology and psychoacoustics, methods and techniques of room and sound field optimization, examples of how these principles apply in real situations, and measurement and modeling techniques. Catalog no. Y104307, April 2014, 491 pp. ISBN: 978-0-415-77930-2, $150.00 / £90.00 Also available as an eBook
Active Control of Noise and Vibration Second Edition Colin Hansen, Scott Snyder, Xiaojun Qiu, Laura Brooks, and Danielle Moreau
Completely revised and updated, this second edition of a bestseller focuses on both the mathematical theory and the practical aspects of measuring and analyzing vibrations. It includes new material on response spectra, as well as revised chapters on modal analysis and on probability and statistics, and new material on stochastic processes and random vibrations. This work brings together theory, methodology, and practice for the practising engineer. It also includes many worked examples based on real cases from the author’s experience.
Integrating active control of both sound and vibration, this comprehensive two-volume set combines coverage of fundamental principles with the most recent theoretical and practical developments. The authors explain how to design and implement successful active control systems in practice and detail the pitfalls one must avoid to ensure a reliable and stable system. Extensively revised, updated, and expanded throughout, the second edition reflects the advances that have been made in algorithms, DSP hardware, and applications since the publication of the first edition.
