Vibration Analysis and Structural Dynamics for Civil Engineers

Essentials and Group-Theoretic Formulations

Beschreibung

This book is unique among the many other books dealing with vibration and dynamics. It is divided into two parts. The first part covers all of the basics, from the modeling of discrete single and multi-degree-of-freedom systems to mathematical formulations for continuous systems, both analytical and numerical. The second part introduces the mathematical concepts of group theory, and applies these to the vibration of a diverse range of symmetric systems, demonstrating the power of this relatively new and novel computational approach.
