Random Vibration of Structures

A basic text emphasizing engineering concepts and methods of analysis used in the design of structures subjected to dynamic environmental loads, such as earthquake ground motions, ocean surface wave forces and severe storm wind pressures. Approaches randomness or uncertainty in loads through probabilistic and statistical methods using simple engineering terms with a minimum amount of advanced mathematics. Among the topics discussed are several new areas of interest to engineers: random load modelling, time dependent random loads, continuous structural systems, and nonlinear structures. Includes numerous engineering examples and exercises.
Random Vibration

Focuses on the Basic Methodologies Needed to Handle Random ProcessesAfter determining that most textbooks on random vibrations are mathematically intensive and often too difficult for students to fully digest in a single course, the authors of Random Vibration: Mechanical, Structural, and Earthquake Engineering Applications decided to revise the cu
Random Vibrations

The topic of Random Vibrations is the behavior of structural and mechanical systems when they are subjected to unpredictable, or random, vibrations. These vibrations may arise from natural phenomena such as earthquakes or wind, or from human-controlled causes such as the stresses placed on aircraft at takeoff and landing. Study and mastery of this topic enables engineers to design and maintain structures capable of withstanding random vibrations, thereby protecting human life. Random Vibrations will lead readers in a user-friendly fashion to a thorough understanding of vibrations of linear and nonlinear systems that undergo stochastic-random-excitation. Provides over 150 worked out example problems and, along with over 225 exercises, illustrates concepts with true-to-life engineering design problems Offers intuitive explanations of concepts within a context of mathematical rigor and relatively advanced analysis techniques. Essential for self-study by practicing engineers, and for instruction in the classroom.
