Features aspects and solutions of problems of linear vibrating systems with a finite number of degrees of freedom. Starts with development of necessary tools in matrix theory, followed by numerical procedures for relevant matrix formulations and relevant theory of differential equations. Minimum of mathematical abstraction; assumes a familiarity with matrix theory, elementary calculus. 1966 edition.
Applications of the Theory of Matrices by F. R. Gantmacher This text surveys complex symmetric, antisymmetric, and orthogonal matrices; singular bundles of matrices; matrices with nonnegative elements; applications of matrix theory to linear differential equations; and the Routh-Hurwitz problem. 1959 edition.
