<br/><br/> The book Structural Dynamic Analysis with Generalized Damping Models: Identification examines advanced methods for analyzing vibration damping, with a focus on generalized non-viscous damping models. While viscous damping has been widely used in dynamics since Lord Rayleigh's work in 1877, it is often adopted for mathematical simplicity rather than accurately representing physical damping behavior. The author presents a comprehensive treatment of non-viscous damping, including the identification of viscous and non-viscous damping, parametric sensitivity analysis, and techniques for quantifying damping. Supported by numerous worked examples, the book is intended for applications in mechanical, aerospace, and structural engineering.
