The series is projected to include a first volume in Matrix Structural Analysis to be followed by volumes in Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering as well as other volumes dealing with specialized or advanced topics in the analysis and design of structures. An important objective in the preparation of these volumes is to integrate and unify the presentation using common notation, symbols and general format. Furthermore, all of these volumes will be using the same structural computer program, SAP2000, developed and maintained by Computers and Structures, Inc. , Berkeley, California.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book is concerned with the static and dynamic analysis of structures. Specifi cally, it uses the stiffness formulated matrix methods for use on computers to tackle some of the fundamental problems facing engineers in structural mechanics. This is done by covering the Mechanics of Structures, its rephrasing in terms of the Matrix Methods, and then their Computational implementation, all within a cohesivesetting. Although this book is designed primarily as a text for use at the upper-undergraduate and beginning graduate level, many practicing structural engineers will find it useful as a reference and self-study guide. Several dozen books on structural mechanics and as many on matrix methods are currently available. A natural question to ask is why another text? An odd devel opment has occurred in engineering in recent years that can serve as a backdrop to why this book was written. With the widespread availability and use of comput ers, today's engineers have on their desk tops an analysis capability undreamt of by previous generations. However, the ever increasing quality and range of capabilities of commercially available software packages has divided the engineering profession into two groups: a small group of specialist program writers that know the ins and outs of the coding, algorithms, and solution strategies; and a much larger group of practicing engineers who use the programs. It is possible for this latter group to use this enormous power without really knowing anything of its source.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKDynamic Analysis of Structures reflects the latest application of structural dynamics theory to produce more optimal and economical structural designs. Written by an author with over 37 years of researching, teaching and writing experience, this reference introduces complex structural dynamics concepts in a user-friendly manner. The author includes carefully worked-out examples which are solved utilizing more recent numerical methods. These examples pave the way to more accurately simulate the behavior of various types of structures. The essential topics covered include principles of structural dynamics applied to particles, rigid and deformable bodies, thus enabling the formulation of equations for the motion of any structure. Covers the tools and techniques needed to build realistic modeling of actual structures under dynamic loads Provides the methods to formulate the equations of motion of any structure, no matter how complex it is, once the dynamic model has been adopted Provides carefully worked-out examples that are solved using recent numerical methods Includes simple computer algorithms for the numerical solution of the equations of motion and respective code in FORTRAN and MATLAB

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAbout the book Matrix structural analysis is a very elementary and useful subject, which is a stepping stone towards understanding more advanced subjects such as detailed finite element analysis, structural dynamics, and stability of structures. In the present day context, where use of computers for analysis of structures having ever-increasing complexity and size is mandatory, knowledge of this subject is essential even at undergraduate level. Study of the subject, not only clarifies structural analysis concepts, but it is also helpful in understanding of the unified analysis and design softwares like STAAD.Pro, SAP etc. Key Features Presents the unified approach of analysis for all types of skeletal structures. Concept of degree(s) of freedom is used in the solutions. The following web link can be used to download the soft copy of FORTRAN-90 program, its application file, data file and other supporting files. drive.google.com/open?id=1WBhAeAUBr-kWY7S7CZzV41Ysxlohbgh5 Computer solutions of the 5 examples on direct stiffness matrix method, and 30 other solved examples are also given in the web link for ready reference. About the author Dr. Pramod K. Singh worked as Professor & Head, and Institute Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology (BHU), Varanasi, India. He taught Matrix Structural Analysis to undergraduate, postgraduate and pre-PhD students for more than three decades. He has developed the subject presentation in a unified and simplified form given in the book with the main computer application objective, which is very much liked by the students. He did his B.Sc. (Civil and Municipal Engineering), M.Sc. (Structures), and Ph.D. (Cable-Stayed Bridges) from the same institute. He has guided 3 PhD and 24 M.Tech. dissertations. He has published 62 research papers and received 4 best paper awards. He is a fellow / life member of four national professional bodies.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe use of COSMOS for the analysis and solution of structural dynamics problems is introduced in this new edition. The COSMOS program was selected from among the various professional programs available because it has the capability of solving complex problems in structures, as well as in other engin eering fields such as Heat Transfer, Fluid Flow, and Electromagnetic Phenom ena. COSMOS includes routines for Structural Analysis, Static, or Dynamics with linear or nonlinear behavior (material nonlinearity or large displacements), and can be used most efficiently in the microcomputer. The larger version of COSMOS has the capacity for the analysis of structures modeled up to 64,000 nodes. This fourth edition uses an introductory version that has a capability limited to 50 nodes or 50 elements. This version is included in the supplement, STRUCTURAL DYNAMICS USING COSMOS 1. The sets of educational programs in Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering that accompanied the third edition have now been extended and updated. These sets include programs to determine the response in the time or frequency domain using the FFf (Fast Fourier Transform) of structures modeled as a single oscillator. Also included is a program to determine the response of an inelastic system with elastoplastic behavior and a program for the development of seismic response spectral charts. A set of seven computer programs is included for modeling structures as two-dimensional and three dimensional frames and trusses.
