The Dynamical Behaviour of Structures

Structures and Solid Body Mechanics Series

By: G. B. Warburton

The Dynamical Behaviour of Structures explores several developments made in the field of structural dynamics. The text provides innovative means to identify the effect of earthquakes on buildings of various types. The mathematical aspect of beam vibrations is discussed in detail, and the different types of vibrations are also explained. The book gives a comprehensive discussion of the reactions of beams to moving loads; the vibrations of beam systems; and the beams on elastic foundations. The second part of the book focuses on the vibrations of plates and shells. In this section, an introduction is given to vibrations of rectangular and circular plates. The analysis of cylindrical and shallow shells then follows. The final chapter of the book discusses the structural vibrations that are influenced by its surrounding or underlying medium. The changes in these structures are then evaluated. The text can provide invaluable insights for civil engineers, architects, students, and researchers in the field of mechanics.

Vibrations of Engineering Structures

By: C.A. Brebbia,H. Tottenham,G.B. Warburton,J.M. Wilson,R.R. Wilson

The increasing size and complexity of new structural forces in engineering have made it necessary for designers to be aware of their dynamic behaviour. Dynamics is a subject which has traditionally been poorly taught in most engineering courses. This book was conceived as a way of providing engineers with a deeper knowledge of dynamic analysis and of indicating to them how some of the new vibrations problems can be solved. The authors start from basic principles to end up with the latest random vibration applications. The book originated 1n a week course given annually by the authors at the Computational Mechanics Centre, Ashurst Lodge, Southampton, England. Special care was taken to ensure continuity in the text and notations. Southampton 1984 CONTENTS Page Foreword Chapter 1 Introduction to Vibration 1. Introductory Remarks 1 2.

Bacteria: A Very Short Introduction

By: Sebastian G. B. Amyes

Very Short Introductions: Brilliant, Sharp, Inspiring Bacteria form a fundamental branch of life. They are the oldest forms of life as we know it, and they are still the most prolific living organisms. They inhabit every part of the Earth's surface, its ocean depths, and even terrains such as boiling hot springs. They are most familiar as agents of disease, but benign bacteria are critical to the recycling of elements and all ecology, as well as to human health. In this Very Short Introduction, Sebastian G. B. Amyes explores the nature of bacteria, their origin and evolution, bacteria in the environment, and bacteria and disease. In this new edition, he examines the ethical implications of synthetic bacteria, the evolving technologies used to combat antibiotics resistance, and the role bacteria play in the evolutionary development of humans. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.
