Structural Dynamics: Solomon A

This document outlines the topics that will be covered in a course on structural dynamics. The course will be divided into two parts: single-degree-of-freedom systems and multi-degree-of-freedom systems. Some of the topics that will be discussed include free vibration, response to different excitations, damping, dynamic response of linear systems, and an introduction to the finite element method. Student performance will be evaluated based on assignments, a midterm exam, and a final exam.
