Overview
- Provides an up-to-date review of rotor dynamics, dealing with basic topics as well as a number of specialized topics usually available only in journal articles
- Unlike other books on rotordynamics, this treats the entire machine as a system, with the rotor as just one component
Part of the book series: Mechanical Engineering Series (MES)

About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
"This comprehensive book deals with the theory of dynamics of rotating systems. … The author attempts to model the dynamic behaviour of all rotating bodies, including not only shafts and turbine motors but also rotating blades and flexible spinning spacecraft. … Without hesitation, this book is recommended to researchers and engineers whose work involves modelling and analysis of rotating systems. The book is definitely a valuable text for graduate students studying rotor dynamics and for those pursuing their own novel approaches." (International Journal of Acoustics and Vibration, Vol. 10 (4), 2005)
