Dynamic Stability of Structures

Klappentext This book explores the theory of parametric stability of structures under deterministic and stochastic loadings. Zusammenfassung This book presents a systematic introduction to the theory of parametric stability of structures under both deterministic and stochastic loadings. A comprehensive range of theories are presented and various application problems are formulated and solved! often using several approaches. This volume is suitable as a graduate textbook or for self-study. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1. Introduction; Part I. Dynamic Stability of Structures under Deterministic Loadings: 2.
