Machinery Vibration: Measurement and Analysis

I received the book as per delivery date. so first of all credit to AmazonSecondly, from the very first day, the book has no seized to amaze me. I got some very valuable information from this book concerning misalignment, bearing defects, looseness etc.I am very satisfied. Credit to you Mr. Wowk for such a good job.I will be buying the rest of your books for sure.

I have read this book and I think it is a good start for anyone getting into Vibration analysis. I found the book fairly easy to follow and contains a lot of good fundamental information. definitely worth the money and a good reference to have on the shelf.

Service: 5 stars (book delivered much before than expected )Book: 4 stars (nice practical approach and interesting applications described with regards to the subject matter)

Concepts clearly exposed

The seller shipped the book real fast and furious. The item was good as explanined, extremely good condition. I was very happy with this book.Thanks.

This description of Victor's book is not all correct. So, I decided to set the record straight. From a little research, I found that an incorrect book description was initially entered into a database and used by other book-sales companies as well. This textbook is basically about the technology of machinery vibration measurement and analysis. It touches on topics such as balancing and alignment, but does not cover these subjects in detail. Victor has written subsequent textbooks that cover balancing and alignment in detail. Amazon's description about this book is correct except for the Synoposis which describes the textbook: Machinery Vibration: Balancing. I know Victor's textbooks intimately--since I word processed all three of them. Of course I highly recommend reading them. As an office manager with no experience in plant maintenance, I gained a basic understanding in the field of vibration analysis. I have seen that when companies utilize this technology, production downtime is minimized, and costs in maintaining rotating equipment and facilites are dramatically reduced--a must read for company decision makers, such as facility or plant managers, purchase agents, and executives. Of course maintenance techs and engineers also can benefit from reading this book. (Victor teaches private and public workshops based on his books--visit [...] for details.)

As a practicing mechanical engineer and vibration analyst for over eight years, I have found Mr.Wowk's book the best yet. In particular, I have found this book to have a good index and sensibly ordered so information can be obtained quickly. Also, Mr.Wowk has smartly avoided extensive mathmatical discussions in his book and focused the content towards common problems and solutions. To improve his book I would recommend more case histories and more extensive content on topics such as electrical problems and bearing faults. Overall it is the best book of its type I have read yet.

As described.
