Dynamic Analysis of Non-Linear Structures by the Method of Statistical Quadratization (Lecture Notes in Engineering) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book deals with a new technique for dynamic analysis of nonlinear structures. A special feature is the technique of equivalent quadratization which allows one to deal with complex nonlinear problems in a very systematic manner. The applicability of this method is especially important for dealing with offshore structures which are exposed to nonlinear forces due to waves. The reader is expected to have a fundamental knowledge of calculus and some background in the area of random variables and stochastic processes. The book is intended for engineers and applied scientists who deal with non-linear vibrations and have particular interest in the area of offshore engineering.
