Dynamic Stability of Suddenly Loaded Structures Dynamic Stability of Suddenly Loaded Structures George J. Simitses This volume describes the general area of dynamic stability as applied to structures. Because this is a very broad field, several uses and interpretation of the term exist. The author attempts to dea… OL19844527W
Finite Element Model Updating in Structural Dynamics Finite Element Model Updating in Structural Dynamics M. I. Friswell Finite element model updating has emerged in the 1990s as a subject of immense importance to the design, construction and maintenance of mechanical systems and civil engineering structures. This book… OL19850155W
Inelastic Analysis of Structures under Variable Loads Inelastic Analysis of Structures under Variable Loads Dieter Weichert The question whether a structure or a machine component can carry the applied loads, and with what margin of safety, or whether it will become unserviceable due to collapse or excessive inelastic def… OL19857267W
