Please consult that website for installationinstructions.<!--l. 41--><p class="indent"> The toolbox can go in any directory as long as the Octave path to it is set properly in the.octaverc file in the user’s home directory. Like any of the other toolboxes, you shouldnot save personal files inside the ovtoolbox directory since you may inadvertentlylose them when you update (i.e. you may decide to delete the directory and replaceeverything).<!--l. 47--><p class="indent"> Example: On my mac (which is BSD unix), my .octaverc file contains the command:path(path,”/Volumes/LaCie/Documents/MyMath/ovtoolbox”);<!--l. 51--><p class="noindent"> <h3 class="sectionHead"><span class="titlemark">3 </span> <a id="x1-30003"></a>Using the Engineering Vibration Toolbox</h3><!--l. 53--><p class="noindent">Typing ’help vtb?’ will provide a table of contents for the files related to chapter ’?’. Typing’help codename’ will provide help on the particular code. Note that the ’filename’ is’codename.m’.<!--l. 57--><p class="indent"> Engineering Vibration Toolbox commands can be run by typing them with the necessaryarguments just as any other Octave/MATLAB commands/functions. For instance, vtb1_1 can berun by typing ”vtb1_1(1,.1,1,1,0,10)”. Many functions have multiple forms of input. The help foreach function shows this flexibility. <h3 class="sectionHead"><span class="titlemark">4 </span> <a id="x1-40004"></a>Printing plots</h3><!--l. 63--><p class="noindent">To print a plot, the easiest way may be to type “print” from the Octave console. This shouldbring up dialog boxes that enable you to send the current plot to your current Windowsprinter.<!--l. 65--><p class="indent"> The “print” command can also be used to generate graphics files for embedding into yourfavorite word processing program. Type “help print” for details. By default the file will end up inthe directory<br class="newline"><span class="obeylines-h"><span class="verb"><span class="cmtt-10x-x-109">C:\Program</span><span class="cmtt-10x-x-109"> Files\GNU</span><span class="cmtt-10x-x-109"> Octave</span><span class="cmtt-10x-x-109"> #\octave_files</span></span></span><!--l. 68--><p class="noindent"> <h3 class="sectionHead"><span class="titlemark">5 </span> <a id="x1-50005"></a>Acknowledgments</h3><!--l. 70--><p class="noindent">Support for the Engineering Vibration Toolbox has come from a number of sources. First andforemost, Daniel J. Inman, who initially tasked myself and Donald J. Leo to write version 3 ofthe software for his text ”Engineering Vibration” by Dr. Daniel J. Inman (Prentice Hall, 1994). Ialso thank the Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering and the College ofEngineering and Computer Science at Wright State University for providing the computerresources for developing the MATLAB 4 version of the software. Perhaps the people who havegiven the most are my students who painfully experienced every piece of beta code, often at theleast opportune times. Thanks is also given to Dr. Maurice Petyt and Robert C. Chiroux fortheir patience in testing numerous 4.0 beta versions of this software. Finally, John W.Eaton and others for writing/coordinating/ developing/supporting Octave. Please seehttp://www.octave.org for more information on Octave and how you can support itsdevelopment.<!--l. 86--><p class="noindent"> <h3 class="sectionHead"><span class="titlemark">6 </span> <a id="x1-60006"></a>License</h3><!--l. 87--><p class="noindent">The Engineering Vibration Toolbox for Octave is licensed free of charge for use with Octave.
