loginVibration is a classical subject whose principles have been known and stud-ied for many centuries and presented in many books. Over the years, the useof these principles to understand and design systems has seen considerablegrowth in the diversity of systems that are designed with vibrations in mind:mechanical, aerospace, electromechanical and microelectromechanical de-vices and systems, biomechanical and biomedical systems, ships and sub-marines, and civil structures. As the performance envelope of an engineeredsystem is pushed to higher limits, nonlinear effects also have to be taken intoaccount.
