This text book is intended for studies in wind engineering, with focus
on the stochastic theory of wind induced dynamic response calculations
for slender bridges or other line ?like civil engineering type of
structures. It contains the background assumptions and hypothesis as
well as the development of the computational theory that is necessary
for the prediction of wind induced fluctuating displacements and cross
sectional forces. The simple cases of static and quasi-static
structural response calculations are for the sake of completeness also
included. The text is at an advanced level in the sense that it
requires a fairly comprehensive knowledge of basic structural
dynamics, particularly of solution procedures in a modal format. None
of the theory related to the determination of eigen ?values and the
corresponding eigen ?modes are included in this book, i. e. it is
taken for granted that the reader is familiar with this part of the
theory of structural dynamics. Otherwise, the reader will find the
necessary subjects covered by e. g. Clough & Penzien [2] and
Meirovitch [3]. It is also advantageous that the reader has some
knowledge of the theory of statistical properties of stationary time
series. However, while the theory of structural dynamics is covered in
a good number of text books, the theory of time series is not, and
therefore, the book contains most of the necessary treatment of
stationary time series (chapter 2). The book does not cover special
subjects such as rain-wind induced cable vibrations.
