Dynamics and Control of Structures

A text/reference on analysis of structures that deform in use. Presents a new, integrated approach to analytical dynamics, structural dynamics and control theory and goes beyond classical dynamics of rigid bodies to incorporate analysis of flexibility of structures. Includes real-world examples of applications such as robotics, precision machinery and aircraft structures.
