Datta presents the first comprehensive treatment of seismic analysis of structures which can be used for a complete course on the topic. While numerous books have been written on earthquakes, earthquake resistance design, seismic analysis and design of structures, none have been tailored for advanced students and practitioners, and those that do focus on a narrow segment of the topic, such as basic theories, ground motion analysis, and soil structure interaction. The only book written for a comprehensive course on the subject Systematically covers the topic, from seismology to control of seismic response Demonstrates practical use of analyses
