Structural Dynamics for Civil Engineers - SDOF systems
Offered By: Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur via Swayam
Course Description
Overview
The theory of structural dynamics is introduced. The characteristics of Single Degree of Freedom Systems under dynamic loading are discussed in detail. Methods to evaluate the response of SDOF systems under various types of dynamic loading are taught. A brief introduction to Multi -DOF systems is also included.
