Preface
"This beak hasbeen written to provide a sel-eontined text on structural
dynamics for use in courses offered to seniors or frt-year graduate
ftadents in evil engineering, ‘The material ix based on the authors
‘oles foreach a couse given at MIT during the past few years tit
presumed that the student has completed the normal undergraduate
workin applied mechanic, mathomatis, and structural engineering.
"The emphasis in this txt is on the practical analysis and design of es
strusturer rather than oa the mathemalal techniques of dytaie
‘nalysin ‘Throughout the book examples are give to lustre appa
tion of the theory to atualstrustual problems. Much ofthe material
hs boon drawn from the author's experiences a consulting engine.
‘With tis emphasis the book should be useful to practicing engineers, as
voll esto studente whose abjotive isto become structure designers
nthe author's opinion, structural dynamies i to often taught as 8
‘coure in vanced tathematie for engineer, For some students this
‘spproach makes the eubject unnecssarly difcult. Other students find
‘he mathematica manipulation ao intriguing that they fl to develop the
‘hynical undertanding essential for good design. In this text the author
that avoided raathenateal complestiee, whieh, although they may be
ital in advanced resareh, aro Unncctsary for most design purpose.
‘Chaptees 1 snd 2, im vome respects, are n review of the dyzamice
ormally taught in applied mechanics. "In addition, however, two other
purposes ave served: (1) the basic theory is related to actual sructres
{ind (2) numerical analysis, which i not normaly covered in applied
tiechanies, i intrdveed. "The order of presentation, ir, nsmerea
Aoaiynis before closed sohtion, is tomewhat unorthodox. ‘The author
Teioves, a6 result of his teaching experience tht this order is prefer-
ble, because numerical analysis exeeuted by hand develops a physical
"ea" for dynamic behavior much more rapidly than does the solution of
ferential equations
‘Chapters 3 and 4 are, perhape, the heart ofthe hook, since they conta
the thoory of analysis for multdegre systems, ‘The suthor hat chowen
not to Use matrix notation, which is eurrently so popular, because in his
‘opinion iti podagogieally unwise to do 20 at this introductory level
or thoe tethers who prefer matrix formulation, the Appendix moy be
helpful Chapter 4 contaies considerable material on beam of various
‘types, because this s believed to be particularly important to structuralChapter 6 is devoted to approximate methods of design, which are
veloped on the basis of the theory presented in earlier chapter
‘Because many dynanie problems in evil enginceriag involve uncertain
loading conditions, tha methods are often more appropriate thay the
‘more proce but time-consuming procedure
Chapters 0,7, and 8 contain applications ofthe theory to some impor
‘tant typenaf structural problema.” These treatinente are incomplete, tt
they are belived to be sufciently thorough to provide sound ited
tion tthe subjects
‘The author wihes to acknowledge with gratitude the assistance of hie
wife, Margaret C. Biggs, who ot only typed thé manuscript, but poe
ided encouragement throughout the writing of this book. Dace
‘eltran-Muldonsdo was extromely helpful in preparing the figures nd
proofreading the manasrpt.

‘The eubjoet of this tert isthe analysis and design of structures subjected

‘hough the loads were state, there are wine importa exceptions, and it
's obviously imperative thatthe designer beable to dtingnich between
Stati and dynam loads
Tn fact, no steutaral loads (with the posite exception of dead lad)

‘anne, sud thi involves atime variation of fore. It obviou, hom

‘nd these arw more susoptive to dynamie eer because they are gen.

‘The basic principles of structural analysis ar of sures not invalidated
by the fact thatthe lod is dynamic. ‘The same relationships between

Dynami analysis consist primarily of the determination of the time

Since the natural period depends upon tho mac and wines of the erie
ture, these two quantities are of perp greater importance in dynamicIn this text considerable attention i given to tho inelastic behavior of
structures, ie, behavior beyond the elastic limit. "This in partially
important in dynamic design because iis often imprcteal or at leat

Numerical Analysis

1A Introduction
‘The determination of the dynanie reponse of simple systems using
‘numerical procedures is iscumed in thie chapter. "The more trade
‘onal rigorous methode are introduced in Chap. 2 This onder of pros
‘sentation in followed because nomeresl analysis, rather than rigorous
solution, & believed to be the most general and yet straightforward
Sppresch posible and the best for introductory purposs,” Only base
principles ‘of physics and the moet emuntary mathemalte are ed
‘Thus the render shouldbe uble to conoentrate onthe physical phenomena
‘avolved rather than on the mathematieal techniques employed. Te
is hoped that this emphasis will help develop a physieal “fol” or intl
tion, for dynamie reponse, which i nessary for suceoful analyia of
‘more complicated dynamic probleme. ‘The reader is unged to keep thin
objective in mind duving his study ofthe following sctons

not dicuiwed in this text and the procedure are ilstrated by hand
‘aleilations, itis expected that, in practice, many of these computations
ould be done electronically.
‘The fllowing sections dea with systems consisting of combinations
of springs and masses. It should fo emphasised that thew are not
merely academic exercises, but rather thatthe system idalted inthis
‘manner is 8 convenient representation of an actual structure, For
txample in Fig. 12a, the weight I, ssppored by » beat and subjectod
‘0-0 dynamic load, may often be represented by the simple meseapring
‘system shown. The same is tue of the rgi.frame stuctare shown fa
Fig. 110, where the mass is distributed along the girder and only bor
ontal motions are considered. Ta order for the Wdeaived sytem, to
Deform in the ane way at the actual stryture, tf oly neceeanry to
inako s proper selection of the system parainctors, For example, the
spring constant k can be determined trom the properties ef the bens or
frame since itis merely tho ratio of foes 40 defection. Ta the sansa
shown, the weight, or mas, ofthe idealised aytem ie the same as that
of the actual structure wince the weight of the structural members is
‘assumed to be negligible. Tn other cae thie may not be true snd &
