Die Bodendynamik hat bei einer Vielzahl von geotechnischen Aufgaben eine besondere Bedeutung. Im Erdbebeningenieurwesen betrifft dies die Stabilität von Dämmen, Böschungen, Gründungen, Stützwänden und Tunneln, während Erschütterungen infolge Verkehr und Baubetrieb einen wesentlichen Aspekt des Umweltschutzes darstellen. Maschinenfundamente und zyklisch belastete Offshore Strukturen gehören ebenfalls zum Anwendungsspektrum. Das Buch behandelt die Grundlagen der Bodendynamik und darauf aufbauend die praktische Anwendung im Erschütterungsschutz und im Erdbebeningenieurwesen."
