Considering a broad range of fundamental factors and conditions influencing the optimal design and operation of machinery, the Handbook of Machinery Dynamics emphasizes the force and motion analysis of machine components in multiple applications.

Containing details on basic theories and particular problems, the Handbook of Machinery Dynamics…

Reviews machine design for selecting the most appropriate energy transfer mechanisms

Elaborates on vibration operations

Develops and numerically illustrates rotordynamic expressions relating to spin speed, as well as whirl magnitude, speed, mode, and ratio

Examines fluid-structure interactions and ways to prevent structural damage through fluid machinery stall or cavitation

Calculates dynamic responses of machine tool and workpiece systems and analyzes the machine tool-cutting process as a nonlinear, dynamic system

Offers forecasting methods for natural frequencies and mode shapes of blade-disk assemblies, and axial thrust loads on turbomachine bearings

Addresses damage control, maintenance requirements, and troubleshooting techniques for ensuring reliable machinery performance
