Presentation on structural dynamic analysis
Dynamic analysis is considerably more expensive than the static analysis.
More skills, knowledge, “feel” for the structural behavior under various types of dynamic loading are required in order to deal with it both correctly and efficiently (a dynamic analysis is much more computational than a static analysis).
The skill of the analyst is to make a judgement if a dynamic analysis is necessary
Situations in which dynamic loading must be considered
Earthquake Engineering
Wind Engineering
Offshore Engineering
Blast and Impact Engineering
Vibration Engineering
Definitions
Distinctive features of a dynamic analysis
Dynamic vs Static analysis
Dynamic analysis procedure
Flow-chart of a typical dynamic analysis
Dynamic modelling of structures
Vibrations and classification of vibrations

The skill of the analyst is to make a judgement if a dynamic analysis is necessary
Situations in which dynamic loading must be considered
- response of bridges to moving vehicle
- action of wind gusts, ocean waves, blast pressure upon a structure
- effect on a building whose foundation is subjected to earthquake excitation
- response of structures subjected to alternating forces caused by oscillating machinery
