Modeling and Control in Vibrational and Structural Dynamics

A Differential Geometric Approach

af Peng-Fei (Chinese Academy of Sciences Yao

With many examples and exercises, this book describes the control behavior of mechanical objects like wave equations, plates, and shells. It presents a complete and updated account of important advances in modeling and control of vibrational and structural dynamics. It also applies the differential geometric approach to waves, plates, shells, etc.
