Transfer matrix method for identifying the dynamic characteristics of an exhaust system / Muhamad Norhisham Abdul Rani

There are a number of modelling procedures and methods for the analysis of dynamic characteristics of structures available. The selection of the procedures and methods is very important, in particular the computational accuracy and speed and the operating cost. Numerical technique based on Transfer...
