Vibration of Structures: Applications in Civil Engineering Design

by J.W. Smith

Vibration of Structures aims to provide civil engineers with the basic principles of vibration theory so that they can assess the dynamic performance of different types of structure at the design stage. The emphasis throughout is on physical behaviour and the mathematical treatment is kept as simple as possible. The book begins with simple mass and spring systems and then carefully develops the theory for systems with many degrees of freedom, including...
