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, this book presents structural systems and offshore structures leading to form-dominant design. The response spectrum method and nonlinear 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(R) examples. Explains the proper application of seismic controls for different classes of structures, including offshore.
