Civil engineers, mechanical engineers, aircraft engineers, ocean engineers, and engineering students encounter these problems every day, and it is up to them systematically to grasp the basic concepts, calculation principles and calculation methods of structural dynamics. This book focuses on the basic theories and concepts, as well as the application and background of theories and concepts in engineering. Since the basic principles and methods of dynamics are applied to other various engineering fields, this book can also be used as a reference for practicing engineers in the field across many multiple disciplines and for undergraduate and graduate students in other majors as well. The main contents include basic theory of dynamics, establishment of equation of motion, single degree of freedom systems, multi-degree of freedom systems, distributed-parameter systems, stochastic structural vibrations, research projects of structural dynamics, and structural dynamics of marine pipeline and risers"-- Provided by publisher.THEi Wiley ebooks.Structural dynamicsStructural dynamics.624.171Bai Yong627309Xu Zhao-DongMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910819662003321Structural dynamics4061530UNINA04533nam 2201081z- 450 99106194783033212022102697819284242531928424252(CKB)4100000009513066(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/93299(Perlego)3511879(oapen)doab93299(EXLCZ)99410000000951306620220518d2019 uy |engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierCritical toponomyPlace names in political, historical and commercial landscapeBloemfonteinUJ Press20191 online resource (208 p.)9781928424246 1928424244 Critical Toponymy: Place names in political, historical and commercial landscapes contains a selection of double-blind peer-reviewed papers from the 4th International Symposium on Place Names that took place 18-20 September 2017 in Windhoek, Namibia. These papers present current thinking on how the critical turn in social sciences is manifested in toponymic research, not only locally but also internationally. As such it includes research on place names from South Africa, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Austria, Slovenia, Central America and even the former Czechoslovakia. The contributions show that the etymology of place names are never purely linguistic - social, political, commercial and other factors influence the giving, use and adaptations of these linguistic and cultural artefacts. Furthermore, given their high symbolic content, place names also serve as political and commercial currency. Place names are therefore important symbolic markers in preserving or changing cultural identities, and in marking or facilitating socio-political changes and relations. Critical Toponymy showcases the many ways in which the representational potential of place names can be deployed in different contexts. Scholars as well as practitioners in toponymy and sociolinguistics will find this an illuminating read.Critical toponomySocial & cultural anthropology, ethnographybicsscSociolinguisticsbicsscAustriaBushmanlandCentral AmericaChrismi-Rinda Lothcommercial place-nameCornelia Geldenhuyscultural dominationcultural heritageCzechoslovakiadialectics and politics of football as revealed in the names and nicknames of three selected Zimbabwe stadiumsDrago KladnikElda HungweetymologyFirst TrekGeographical names standardisationGeorg SchuppenerGodwin MakaudzeHerero place nameshistorical and commercial landscapesJani de LangeKathryn M.
