Developed from three decades' worth of lecture notes which the
author used to teach at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology,
this unique textbook presents a comprehensive treatment of
structural dynamics and mechanical vibration. The chapters in this
book are self-contained so that instructors can choose to be
selective about which topics they teach. Written with an
application-based focus, the text covers topics such as earthquake
engineering, soil dynamics, and relevant numerical methods
techniques that use MATLAB. Advanced topics such as the Hilbert
transform, gyroscope forces, and spatially periodic structures are
also treated extensively. Concise enough for an introductory course
yet rigorous enough for an advanced or graduate-level course, this
textbook is also a useful reference manual - even after the final
exam - for professional and practicing engineers.
