Mechanical Vibrations: Theory and Application to Structural Dynamics, Third Edition is a comprehensively updated new edition of the popular textbook. It presents the theory of vibrations in the context of structural analysis and covers applications in mechanical and aerospace engineering. Key features include: A systematic approach to dynamic reduction and substructuring, based on duality between mechanical and admittance concepts An introduction to experimental modal analysis and identification methods An improved, more physical presentation of wave propagation phenomena A comprehensive presentation of current practice for solving large eigenproblems, focusing on the efficient linear solution of large, sparse and possibly singular systems A deeply revised description of time integration schemes, providing framework for the rigorous accuracy/stability analysis of now widely used algorithms such as HHT and Generalized-α Solved exercises and end of chapter homework problems A companion website hosting supplementary material

Controlling market power is a crucial issue in liberalised telecommunications markets. By comparatively analysing five countries, this book explores how the regulatory framework should be designed.
What drives Marine Le Pen and France's Front National? Has her party really changed its ways, or is she merely rebranding its old ideas and policies for a new era? In the age of Brexit and Trump, France too has seen a growing audience for identity-based politics. Under 'Marine', the FN is enjoying unprecedented success. But what's her secret? This is a probing investigation into the philosophy of Marine Le Pen's FN. It seeks answers in her speeches, in the history of French nationalism and in revealing interviews with those on the far right-including Jean-Marie Le Pen himself. Michel Eltchaninoff exposes a vision of France tyrannized by liberalism and seduced by the offer of an uncompromising alternative: a Republic 'beyond Left and Right', defined by its enemies and aligned with Putin's Russia. Whatever Marine Le Pen is thinking, she has not forgotten the FN's roots. The French far right is now stronger than ever.
Avec Frêle bruit, Michel Leiris clôt La règle du jeu. Il a consacré trente-cinq ans à la rédaction d'un ouvrage dont le premier propos est de lier des données tirées de sa vie intime. Ce chercheur obstiné à se regarder lui-même peut affirmer qu'il voulait procéder, pour l'usage de quelques autres autant que pour le sien, à une mise en lumière aussi poussée que possible, à partir de l'échantillon humain qu'il est. Et ce n'est pas seulement par goût mais jugeant qu'en l'espèce l'investigation rationnelle ne pouvait faire plus qu'écarter des ombres que, sans vergogne, il a laissé la poésie primer l'enchaînement logique. Dans ce livre-ci, construit presque musicalement, se mêlent donc à des souvenirs proches ou lointains, et à des idées soit anciennes soit venues chemin faisant, des tentatives plus ou moins expresses d'arriver à des moments de transparence en manipulant le langage pris en soi plus que comme instrument d'un commerce. Aspiration au merveilleux, volonté d'engagement dans la lutte contre les iniquités sociales, désir d'universalisme qui l'a porté à des contacts directs avec des cultures autres que la sienne, telles sont les couleurs qui semblent dominer dans le jeu de cet écrivain, amené par sa conscience aigüe de la marche du temps à essayer maints moyens de conjurer l'horreur dont l'a empli très tôt la perspective de son anéantissement.
