Torsional Vibration References

[Modula2]

I am looking for modern books and references on calculation of torsional vibration, such as the torque harmonics of a reciprocating compressor. The ones I have are ancient, by Ker Wilson and Nestorides. Any popular modern ones or were those the final word?

I use Mechanical Vibrations by Den Hartog, also an "ancient" text but a wonderful book none the less. I put together a quick Holzer table in excel based on the equations out of this book and now have a decent program for checking torsionals on recips or other pieces of equipment.

sms,

I am currently trying to analyze torsional vibrations between a e-motor and hyd. pump. In your spreadsheet, do you consider the coupling hub's inertia? And, are you willing to share your spreadsheet?

Bpb Eisenmann covers this topic very well in his excellent book: Machinery Malfunction Diagnosis and Correction. Here is a link to details on this text:

dear Modula2,
For my personal interest would you like to share some compressor details? Since i am also working on reciprocating compressor.
regards,
