An Impulse and Earthquake Energy Balance Approach in Nonlinear Structural Dynamics Paperback / softback

Description

Problems in nonlinear structural dynamics and critical excitation with elastic-plastic structures are typically addressed using time-history response analysis, which requires multiple repetitions and advanced computing.

This alternative approach transforms ground motion into impulses and takes an energy balance approach.

This book is accessible to undergraduates, being based on the energy balance law and the concepts of kinetic and strain energies, and it can be used by practitioners for building and structural design.

This presentation starts with simple models that explain the essential features and extends in a step-by-step manner to more complicated models and phenomena.
