Books by Charles H. Dowding
The entire field of construction-induced vibrations is covered by this text. Included are applications from earthquake engineering, nuclear blast protective design and blasting for construction and mining. Dominant excitation and response frequency as well as induced strain are a principal focus of the material. Also included are major regulatory issues faced by those responsible for producing construction vibrations. The author is a Professor Emeritus at Northwestern University, a Distinguished Member of the American Society of Civil Engineers, and Fellow of the American Rock Mechanics Association.
