Structural Dynamics by Yong Bai and Zhao-Dong Xu is a comprehensive guide to the principles and applications of structural dynamics in engineering. The book covers a wide range of topics including the analysis of structures under dynamic loads, vibration analysis, earthquake engineering, and structural health monitoring.
The authors provide a detailed explanation of the fundamental concepts of structural dynamics, such as the behavior of structures under different types of dynamic loads and the response of structures to vibrations. They also discuss advanced topics such as the dynamic analysis of complex structures, the design of structures to resist dynamic loads, and the use of numerical methods in structural dynamics.
The book includes numerous examples and case studies to illustrate the practical applications of the concepts discussed. It is suitable for students, researchers, and practicing engineers who are interested in gaining a deeper understanding of structural dynamics and its importance in the field of engineering.
Structural Dynamics is a valuable resource for anyone looking to enhance their knowledge of structural dynamics and its applications in the design and analysis of structures.
This edition retains the full content with the added advantage of portability, allowing readers to easily access and engage with the material from any device, whether in a classroom or during fieldwork.
