MSET 5180 - Structural Dynamics

3 hours

Determines the effect of time-varying loads on structural performance and introduces single degree of freedom (SDOF) systems in free vibration circumstances and proceeds to forced response performance where loads are harmonic, periodic, impulsive, and generally time-varying. Multi degree of freedom (MDOF) systems and similar load response structural performances are developed using matrix methods.
