The entire field of construction-induced vibrations - including advances in earthquake engineering, nuclear blast protective design, and construction and mine blasting - is covered in this work. Frequency of vibration and strain form the foundation for the presentation of the material.

Collection of excellent articles presenting the latest developments in blast vibration measurements, modeling and mitigation techniques. Includes contributions on novel environmentally-induced vs blast-induced movements, non-conventional geophysical processing techniques, new modeling approaches, mitigation techniques using smarter blasting methods

This volume focuses on the origin, transmission, and types of elastic waves in solid media, covering the physical laws involved in wave analysis and the mathematical methods for analyzing wave phenomena. 1971 edition.
