Preface

Starting from an elementary level in mechanical vibrations, this self-contained book provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of physical principles, while also highlighting recent advances, in piezoelectric materials and structures used in a variety of vibration-control systems. The contents are cohesively divided into three major parts, each consisting of several chapters. The first part of the book itself can serve as a single-source book on an introduction to mechanical vibrations which starts with the required preliminaries, followed by a unified approach to vibrations of discrete and continuous systems. The second part presents the fundamentals of piezoelectric-based systems with an emphasis on their constitutive modeling as well as vibration absorption and control techniques using piezoelectric actuators and sensors. Building based upon Parts I and II, the last part of the book provides readers with an insight into advanced topics in piezoelectric-based micro/nano actuators and sensors with applications ranging from molecular manufacturing and precision mechatronics to molecular recognition and functional nanostructures. With its self-contained and single-source style, this book can serve as the primary reference in a first course for senior undergraduate and graduate level students as well as reference for research scientists in the mechanical, electrical, civil, and aerospace engineering disciplines. Although a background in undergraduate vibrations and dynamics is preferred, most fundamental concepts and required mathematical tools are briefly reviewed for
