Vibration Utilization Engineering [electronic resource] / by Bangchun Wen, XianLi Huang, Yinong Li, Yimin Zhang.

Chapter 1 Forming and Development of Vibration Utilization Engineering -- Chapter 2 Some Important Results In Vibration and Wave Utilization Engineering Fields -- Chapter 3 Theory of Vibration Utilization Technology and Equipment Technological Process -- Chapter 4 Linear and Pseudo Linear Vibration -- Chapter 5 Utilization of Nonlinear Vibration -- Chapter 6 Utilization of Wave and Wave Energy -- Chapter 7 Utilization of Vibrating Phenomena and Patterns in Nature and Society.

This book proposes “Vibration Utilization Engineering,” using harmful vibrations in many cases for energy harvesting. Scope of the book includes, but not limited to, linear and nonlinear system of vibrations, waves (sound wave and light wave), wave motion and energy utilization, the electric–magnetic oscillation utilization in engineering, the phenomena, patterns, and utilization of the vibrations in Nature and human social society. It is all based on the theory of vibration utilization technology and equipment technological process, linear and pseudo-linear vibration, nonlinear vibration. This new subject branch is closely associated with numerus applications in industrial or agricultural production, medical apparatus and equipment and daily life, etc. It could create significant economic and social benefits and provide significant values for society and excellent service for human life.
