Description for Structural Motion Engineering
Hardcover. Structural Motion Engineering Num Pages: 619 pages, 313 black & white illustrations, 84 colour illustrations, 31 black & white tables, biogra. BIC Classification: TNC. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 242 x 159 x 29. Weight in Grams: 1018.
This innovative volume provides a systematic treatment of the basic concepts and computational procedures for structural motion design and engineering for civil installations. The authors illustrate the application of motion control to a wide spectrum of buildings through many examples. Topics covered include optimal stiffness distributions for building-type structures, the role of damping in controlling motion, tuned mass dampers, base isolation systems, linear control, and nonlinear control. The book's primary objective the satisfaction of motion-related design requirements such as restrictions on displacement and acceleration and seeks the optimal deployment of material stiffness and motion control devices to achieve these design ...
