Research in vibration response control deals not only with prevention of catastrophic failures of structures during natural or accidental/manmade hazards but also ensures the comfort of occupants through serviceability. Therefore, the focus of this book is on the theory of dynamic response control of structures by using different kinds of passive vibration control devices. The strategies used for controlling displacement, velocity, and acceleration response of structures such as buildings, bridges, and liquid storage tanks under the action of dynamic loads emanating from earthquake, wind, wave, and so forth are detailed.

The book:

- Explains fundamentals of vibration response control devices and their practical applications in response mitigation of structures exposed to earthquake, wind, and wave loading

- Offers a comprehensive overview of each passive damper, its functioning, and mathematical modeling in a dynamical system

- Covers practical aspects of employing the passive control devices to some of the benchmark problems that are developed from existing buildings and bridges in different countries worldwide

- Includes MATLAB® codes for determining the dynamic response of single degree of freedom (SDOF) and multi-degree of freedom (MDOF) systems along with computational models of the passive control devices

This book is aimed at senior undergraduate students, graduate students, and researchers in civil, earthquake, aerospace, automotive, mechanical engineering, engineering dynamics, and vibration control, including structural engineers, architects, designers, manufacturers, and other professionals.

Vasant A. Matsagar is currently serving as a Dogra Chair Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi. He obtained his doctorate degree from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay in 2005 in the area of seismic base isolation of structures. He performed his postdoctoral research at the Lawrence Technological University (LTU), United States, in the area of carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) in bridge structures for about four years. His current research interests include structural dynamics and vibration control; multi-hazard protection of structures from earthquake, blast, fire, and wind; finite element methods; fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) in prestressed concrete structures; and bridge engineering. He has guided students at both undergraduate (UG) and postgraduate (PG) levels in their bachelors’ and masters’ projects and doctoral research. Besides student guidance, he is actively engaged in sponsored research and consultancy projects at national and international levels. He has published hundreds of international journal papers, other hundreds of international conference manuscripts, a book, six edited proceedings, and has filed for two patents. He is also involved in teaching courses in structural engineering, e.g., structural analysis, finite element methods, numerical methods, structural stability, structural dynamics, design of steel and concrete structures to name a few. He has received the Excellence in Teaching Award. He has organized several short- and long-term courses as part of a quality improvement program (QIP) and continuing education program (CEP) and delivered invited lectures in different educational and research organizations. He is Fellow of Institution of Engineers, IEI (India), Indian Society of Earthquake Technology (ISET), and member of several professional societies. Prof. Matsagar is the recipient of numerous national and international awards including "CDRI Fellowship" by the Coalition for Disaster Resilient Infrastructure (CDRI) in 2021; ASEM-DUO India Professor Fellowship Award in 2020; Erasmus+ Fellowship in 2020; "Humboldt Research Fellowship" in 2017; "Erasmus Mundus Award" in 2013; "DST Young Scientist Award" by the Department of Science and Technology (DST) in 2012; "DAAD Awards" by the Deutscher Akademischer Austausch Dienst (DAAD) in 2009 and 2012; "DAE Young Scientist Award" by the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) in 2011; "IBC Award for Excellence in Built Environment" by the Indian Buildings Congress (IBC) in 2010; "IEI Young Engineer Award" by the Institution of Engineers (India) in 2009; and "Outstanding Young Faculty Fellowship" by the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi in 2009.
