By: Williams, Martin, 1962- [author.]Material type: TextTextPublisher: Boca Raton : CRC Press, Taylor & Francis Group, [2016]Description: xviii, 265 pages ; 26 cmContent type: text Media type: unmediated Carrier type: volumeISBN: 9780415427326 (pbk.); 0415427320 (pbk.)Subject(s): Structural dynamics | Structural dynamics | Strukturdynamik | BauwerkDDC classification: 624.1/71 LOC classification: TA654 | .W55 2016
Contents:
Introduction to dynamic systems -- Single-degree-of-freedom systems -- Multi-degree-of-freedom systems -- Continuous systems -- Non-linear dynamics -- Fourier analysis and random vibrations.
Summary: This short, accessible introduction to structural dynamics is aimed at upper level civil engineering undergraduates and those starting an M. Sc. course, making extensive use of worked examples. It begins by describing dynamic systems and their representation for analytical purposes, then linear analysis of single- (SDOF) and multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) systems, under free vibration and in response to a variety of forcing functions. Hand analysis of continuous systems, methods of calculation of non-linear dynamic response, and the key principles of random vibration analysis are discussed. --Back cover.
