Earthquake Engineering and Structural Control: Theory and Applications examines the basics of structural dynamics with its application for earthquake engineering and structural control methods. The objective is not to explain earthquake resistant design but rather to present different methods of analysis under earthquake and other environmental loads such as fire and physical impact. While presenting fundamental concepts in a simple manner, the book presents structural systems and offshore structures leading to form-dominant design. The response spectrum method and non-linear time history analysis of structures under earthquake loads are discussed in detail, while the basics of earthquake resistant design through planning guidelines, as well as introductory seismology, are also covered.

  • Presents dynamic analysis and illustrations of single-degree-of-freedom systems with numerous examples to explain the response spectrum analysis under earthquake and impact loads.
  • Offers detailed solutions to multi-degree-of-freedom systems through numerical methods, supported by MATLAB examples.
  • Explains the proper application of seismic controls for different classes of structures, including offshore.
