Every so often, a reference book appears that stands apart from all others, destined to become the definitive work in its field. The Vibration and Shock Handbook is just such a reference. From its ambitious scope to its impressive list of contributors, this handbook delivers all of the techniques, tools, instrumentation, and data needed to model, analyze, monitor, modify, and control vibration, shock, noise, and acoustics. Providing convenient, thorough, up-to-date, and authoritative coverage, the editor summarizes important and complex concepts and results into “snapshot” windows to make quick access to this critical information even easier. The Handbook’s nine sections encompass: fundamentals and analytical techniques; computer techniques, tools, and signal analysis; shock and vibration methodologies; instrumentation and testing; vibration suppression, damping, and control; monitoring and diagnosis; seismic vibration and related regulatory issues; system design, application, and control implementation; and acoustics and noise suppression. The book also features an extensive glossary and convenient cross-referencing, plus references at the end of each chapter. Brimming with illustrations, equations, examples, and case studies, the Vibration and Shock Handbook is the most extensive, practical, and comprehensive reference in the field. It is a must-have for anyone, beginner or expert, who is serious about investigating and controlling vibration and acoustics.

ISBN : 978-967-2454-09-0 Author : Mohd Azli Salim Laminated rubber-metal bearing from natural rubber also been well-known as a vibration isolator to block vibration energy. However, most of existing works on the bearing especially the mathematical models consider only the performance of the bearing due to the static force. Development of mathematical model for dynamic force and also its response is still lacking. Additionally, application of the existing rubber bearings only focuses on motion in the horizontal direction (sliding motion) intended to counter the energy coming from the earthquake. In this book, it is of interest to develop new techniques to perform the performance of the bearing subjected to axial excitation, and also to explore the potential of the vibration isolator for other applications, where dynamic loading can come from axial direction, such as cars passing by on the bridge or highway, or ground-borne vibration from railway lines. At the end, the model can be used for many applications which are mechanical, civil, building and many more.
