This book provides practising engineers with an easily understandable introduction to the dynamics of civil engineering while ensuring a better understanding of the dynamic theories that form the basis of computer packages, such as: ANSYS (US) - general purpose finite element program LUSAS (UK) - civil engineering and design program DYNA 3 (UK/Japanese/US) - dynamics and soil-structure interaction program. Experience has shown that it is all too easy to make mistakes in the input data and still accept the results obtained. With the aid of practical worked examples, methods and diagrams, this book will help you judge the validity of dynamic response calculations obtained using programs such as the above.
