Highlights
Driving forces acting on engineering structures 4
The second chapter deals with the basic relations governing the natural vibration of systems with single and multidegrees of freedom and with continuously distributed mass
The concluding part of the chapter explains how the exciting forces are determined by calculation and experiment
Summary
This touches on dynamic loadings, response and design philosophies. The conclusions from the earlier chapters are brought together, along with typical values of dynamic characteristics and appropriate recommendations. This is a very good reference on the subject, especially in the last two chapters. There are a large number of references to research and testing carried out in Europe - which will be of interest to New Zealand engineers, though not all of them will be readily available - but there are very few references to work that has been carried out in other parts of the world.
