Publisher's Synopsis
Vibratory Condition Monitoring of Machines discusses the basic principles applicable in understanding the vibratory phenomena of rotating and reciprocating machines. It also addresses the defects that influence vibratory phenomenon, instruments and analysis procedures for maintenance, vibration related standards, and the expert systems that help ensure good maintenance programs. The author offers a minimal treatment of the mathematical aspects of the subject, focusing instead on imparting a physical understanding to help practicing engineers develop maintenance programs and operate machines efficiently.
