Dynamic Analysis — Part 1: SDOF Systems and Basics
Dynamic Analysis — Part 2: MDOF Systems and ApplicationsThe authors will try to explain all the necessary tasks of pipe stress engineering with basic fundamentals.
Although only a few very fundamental equations are introduced, theoretical backgrounds
will be covered in as much detail as possible. The book is titled Pipe Stress Engineering to distinguish it from a regular pipe stress analysis book, which normally lacks the coverage of the engineering aspects.
Although this book is intended for piping mechanical engineers, it is also a suitable reference book
for piping designers, plant engineers, and civil-mechanical engineers. The book can be used as the
textbook for a one- or two-semester elective course given at the senior or graduate level.
