Distributed Transfer Function Method: One-Dimensional Problems in Engineering

The distributed transfer function method (DTFM) is an analytical method for
modeling, analysis, and control of a class of distributed parameter systems that are
governed by partial differential equations and that can be defi ned over multiple
interconnected subregions. In this comprehensive reference, the authors show how the
DTFM delivers highly accurate analytical solutions in both the frequency domain and
the time domain while offering a versatile modeling technique for various problems
in mechanical, civil, aerospace, electrical, chemical, biomechanical, and vehicle
engineering.
