This entirely updated and enlarged Second Edition broadens the scope of the previous edition while maintaining its concise, easy-to-read style in presenting the basic principles of turbomachine theory and their applications to specific devices.

Vibration Analysis for Electronic Equipment, Second Edition describes the methods for designing electronic equipment that must work with a high degree of reliability in severe vibration and shock environments. It is the only book that explains how to design and predict the operational life of electronic equipment, based upon the type of electronic components being used and the type of vibration and shock exposure. All the information in this book is based upon theoretical analysis that is backed up by test data.

Revised and updated throughout, the Second Edition provides a unified presentation of shell vibrations, with plates, rings, and other structural elements treated as special cases-starting with the derivation of the simplest set of deep shell equations and continuing on to anisotropic shells and the effect of initial stresses.

Contents-Engineering mechanics of bins, silos, and stacks. Rotating equipment. Mechanical design of shell and tube heat exchangers. External loadings on shell structures.
