Editorial Reviews

The series of two volumes presents the basic knowledge necessary to understand earthquake engineering in general and to analyze the dynamic response of civil structures such as foundations, dams, industrial facilities, bridges, in-ground structures, and port and harbor structures. This volume focuses on the latter. The eight chapters are divided into two parts on numerical analysis methods and problems encountered in the application of dynamic analysis. Topics include basic methods for response calculations, nonlinear problems, mutual interaction in a soil-structure system, input ground motion, and rupture of ground due to earthquake. Annotation c.
