CE 4421 - Structural Dynamics

Institution:

Temple University

Subject:

Description:

This course is designed for civil engineering students interested in pursuing careers in Structural Engineering. The course will enable students to explain the dynamic equilibrium of a structural system under dynamic loading; formulate equations of motion for single and multi-degree-of-freedom structures subjected to various dynamic loads; compute responses of structural systems to harmonic, pulse and earthquake loads; use spectral analysis and numerical methods to compute the response of structures to dynamic loading; recognize the basis for building code provisions related to dynamic loading; and use and evaluate modern commercial dynamic analysis software.
