Classic Dynamic Book

For anyone who is doing simulation and dynamics analysis this book should be in their Library

reference book for elctricl anlogies to mechanical systems

Youll need an engineering background (preferably electrical) and you will need to have done introductory control systems analysis to understand whats going on. Book is a solid reference biased to practical physical systems. Gives the electrical network analogies as well as dynamical analysis - many pictures, very simple english explanations - very much practical bent. Plenty of maths - but in that simple 1960's style that can be understood, even by me. None of that maths jibberish that makes your eyes glaze over. Recommended.
