Scotland: History of a Nation by David Frost
The first part of this book covers the general theory of structural dynamics, in a calculous format as well as a finite element formulation. Secondly, it contains methods of eigenvalue calculations of civil engineering structural systems. And third, it contains a major part covering dynamic displacement response calculations as induced by earthquake, turbulent wind, vortex shedding and moving vehicles, enabling the designer to evaluate structural safety from the effects of fluctuating internal forces.
The general theory contains comprehensive development of the principle of virtual displacements, as well as the Galerkin solution to eigenvalue problems. A separate chapter has been dedicated to the suspension bridge. The theory of single or multiple tuned mass dampers is included, a theory not presented elsewhere.
The book contains a chapter covering the theory of structural damping, as well as comprehensive data of the structural damping properties that are necessary for any dynamic response calculation.
The book is intended for students as well as practising engineers. It contains numerous relevant examples, covering numerical solutions that are well suited for computer programming.| SKU | Non disponible |
