Essentials of Structural Dynamics

Beschreibung

A concise introduction to the principles and practices of structural dynamics This hands-on textbook lays out essential structural dynamics concepts and computational methods. The textbook reinforces key concepts and connects theoretical formulations to civil engineering practice. Detailed, step-by-step examples cover all essential aspects of structural dynamics. Written by a pair of experts, Essentials of Structural Dynamics is ideal for both students and practicing engineers who need to brush up on current techniques and computing tools. The book includes access to a various digital ancillaries, including image galleries, PowerPoint lecture notes, and MATLAB scripts. Coverage includes: * An introduction to structural dynamics * Flexural and shear stresses in lateral force resisting portal systems * Free vibration of undamped single degree-of-freedom (SDOF) systems * Free vibration response of SDOF systems with viscous damping * Forced vibration response of SDOF systems to harmonic loading * Forced vibration response of SDOF systems to general dynamic loading * Approximate analysis for short-duration excitation pulses * Vibration of generalized SDOF systems with distributed mass and stiffness * Discrete and continuous systems analysis * Vibration of multi degree-of-freedom (MDOF) systems * Forced vibration of MDOF systems * And much more
