Intended as an introduction to mechanical vibration, William
Palm?s text is designed for courses typically offered in the
junior or senior year in mechanical engineering, aerospace
engineering, or engineering mechanics curricula. Common
applications of the subject include vehicle suspension systems and
vibration isolators and absorbers designed to minimize the effects
of vibration on people and machines.  Prerequisite subject
  is dynamics, and Mechanical Vibration provides
many examples of deriving vibration models from dynamics
principles.  

The first seven chapters form the core text material.  One
or more of the remaining four chapters may be covered, depending on
the time available and on the emphasis desired by the
instructor.  Because MATLAB is now the standard applications
language used in engineering curricula, this language is emphasized
in the text, via separate sections at the end of
chapter.   In addition, Simulink, which provides a
graphical user interface that is often much easier to use than
traditional command-line programs, is covered in the text. 
This is the only vibration text to cover Simulink, and most
chapters have a separate section devoted to the Simulink features
relevant to the chapter.
