Biography

Paolo L. Gatti is an independent vibration consultant with a degree in nuclear physics and has thirty years of experience in engineering vibrations, non-destructive testing and statistical data analysis.

"I would recommend this book to those who would want to understand the math behind the principles and equations used in vibrations. It is logically presented and very comprehensive at a high level in describing the mathematics of vibrations. It also could be helpful as a supplemental text in a high-level engineering graduate course on mechanical vibrations."
