Böcker av J. Jaap Wijker

Space flight is a comprehensive and innovative part of technology. It provides an optimal reference with insight into the design, construction and analysis aspects of spacecraft. The emphasis of this book is put on unmanned space flight, particularly on the construction of spacecraft rather than the construction of launch vehicles.

This book examines low and high frequency mechanical, acoustic random vibrations. The theory of random vibration is strongly related to the design of spacecraft structures and is illustrated with simple and more difficult worked examples.
