All classes are taught in English unless otherwise noted. Course Description This course is targeted for the users who would like to become productive in analyzing structures subjected to various types of dynamic loading. The material covered includes time-dependent analysis (force loads as well as motion shock loading examples), harmonic analysis and random vibration analysis (MILS-STD-810F example is included), response spectrum analysis, and introduction to nonlinear dynamics simulation.
