Stochastic analysis of structural and mechanical vibrations

With the aim of stating the fundamental principles and relationships of structural and mechanical vibrations, this guide focuses on the determination of response levels for dynamical systems excited by forces that can be modeled as stochastic processes. It concentrates material in the beginning of t...
