Omschrijving
“This book is essentially a book on Mechanical Vibrations written for beginners. … The basic concepts are explained in a simple manner and derivations of all related formulations are described in detail in a very systematic manner. The concepts are illustrated with neat diagrams to allow the reader to grasp the basic concepts. … the book is very well written. The reviewer recommends the book to students of Aeronautical, Civil and Mechanical Engineering stream.” (Girish Kumar Ramaiah, zbMATH 1464.70002, 2021)
Farzad Hejazi is an Associate Professor and Research Coordinator at the Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, University Putra Malaysia (UPM), where he has also been an innovation champion since 2013 and a member of the Housing Research Center’s management committee. He received his Ph.D. in Structural Engineering from the University Putra Malaysia in 2011 and worked as a postdoctoral fellow until 2012. In addition, he teaches Ph.D. students in structural engineering fields such as the finite element method, structural dynamics, advanced solid mechanics, advanced structural analysis and earthquake resistance structure.
He manages and supervises a research team consisting of 20 Ph.D. students and 8 master’s students, which is involved in various high impact research and industry projects funded by the Ministry of Higher Education Malaysia, Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation, PlaTCOM Venture Malaysian Government Agency, University Putra Malaysiaand industrial companies and has led to 15 patents being filed in the USA, Japan, Germany, Canada, New Zealand and Malaysia. Four of his patents are related to vibration dissipation devices already licensed to industry for mass production and implemented in various construction projects, such as bridges and other structures.
Tan Kar Chun holds a first-class honors degree in Civil Engineering from the University Putra Malaysia (UPM), and is currently pursuing his Ph.D. in Structural Engineering at UPM. He has been a consultant in the civil and structural engineering industry for the past five years, and during that time he has been involved in multiple projects at various scales: from a 1,400-acre township development to a 50-storey high-rise building.
