Product Description: Structural Dynamics: Theory and Applications provides readers with an understanding of the dynamic response of structures and the analytical tools to determine such responses. This comprehensive text demonstrates how modern theories and solution techniques can be applied to a large variety of practical, real-world problems...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

Product Description: The papers included in this book represent state-of-the-art developments in and applications of computer aided simulation of fluid-structure interaction problems in both the terrestrial and marine environments. Topics discussed include a wave force model for concrete armor units, response of concrete dam-water-foundation rock systems to earthquake ground motion, numerical simulation of the large motion response of moored and floating structures, fluid-structure-soil interaction of cylindrical liquid storage tanks, and structural data reduction for a floating breakwater prototype test program...read more
