Most textbooks on random vibrations are very mathematically intensive, and are often difficult for senior/graduate students to digest in the learning period of a single semester course. This book is designed to focus on basic methodologies to handle random process in engineering practices. Based on our teaching experience, this book can help students to directly gain the necessary knowledge and basic concept of random process, which used to be very difficult through math-intensive logic-rigorous training with conventional textbooks.
