Description
THE PHYSICS OF VIBRATIONS AND WAVES Sixth Edition Contents Introduction to First Edition Introduction to Second Edition Introduction to Third Edition Introduction to Fourth Edition. Introduction to Fifth Edition Introduction to Sixth Edition Chapter Synopses 1 Simple Harmonic Motion 2 Damped Simple Harmonic Motion 3 The Forced Oscillator 4 Coupled Oscillations. 5 Transverse Wave Motion 6 Longitudinal Waves 7 Waves on Transmission Lines 8 Electromagnetic Waves 9 Waves in More than One Dimension 10 Fourier Methods 11 Waves in Optical Systems. 12 Interference and Diffraction 13 Wave Mechanics 14 Non-linear Oscillations and Chaos 15 Non-linear Waves, Shocks and Solitons Appendix 1: Normal Modes, Phase Space and Statistical Physics.
The main theme of this highly successful book is that the transmission of energy by wave propagation is fundamental to almost every branch of physics. Therefore, besides giving students a thorough grounding in the theory of waves and vibrations, the book also demonstrates the pattern and unity of a large part of physics.
