Dynamics Of Structures
Dynamics of Structures is a definitive and comprehensive textbook designed for civil and structural engineering students and professionals. The book provides a detailed exploration of the theory of structural dynamics and its practical applications in earthquake analysis, design, and structural evaluation. It is structured to guide readers logically from the study of single-degree-of-freedom systems to multi-degree-of-freedom discrete-parameter systems, and finally to infinite-degree-of-freedom continuous systems. With a focus on both deterministic and stochastic (random) aspects of dynamics, the text bridges the gap between static analysis and the complex time-varying forces of nature, making it an essential reference for engineers working in seismic-prone regions.
