Dr. Junbo Jia is an engineering expert at Aker Solutions, Norway. He has extensive experience on marine structural assessment accounting for dynamics and nonlinearity, earthquake engineering, geotechnical engineering, hydrodynamic analysis, structural wind engineering and engineering designs of marine structures. He has been extensively involved in analyses and designs in offshore and energy industries, associated with different types of offshore and onshore structures and foundations. He is currently a committee member of ISO TC67/SC7 Offshore Structures and an invited expert group member of Eurocode 3. He has been invited as guest professor and key speaker by various organizations and research institutes. Dr. Junbo Jia has received several national and international awards such as the Vice Admiral E.L. Cochrane award from the Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers (SNAME) and the Best Paper Award from the journal Ships and Offshore Structures. He is the sole author of three comprehensive scientific monographs by Springer. All the three books receive an extensive amount of downloads based on Springer official data. He is also the editor of a book volume by CRC press (with J.K. Paik). He is listed in several global versions of the Who's Who publications. Dr. Jia is an elected member of Norwegian Academy of Technological Sciences.

• Introduction.- Governing Equation of Motions.- Free Vibrations for a Single-Degree-of-Freedom (SDOF) System–Translational Oscillations.- Practical Eigenanalysis and Structural Health Monitoring.- Solving Eigenproblem for Continuous Systems: Rayleigh Energy Method.- Vibration and Buckling Under Axial Loading.- Eigenfrequencies of Non-uniform Beams, Shallow and Deep Foundations.- Deterministic and Stochastic Motions.- Time Domain to Frequency Domain: Spectrum Analysis.- Statistics of Motions and Loads.- Forced Vibrations.- Calculation of Environmental Loading Based on Power Spectra.- Vibration of Multi-Degrees-of-Freedom Systems.- Damping.- Nonlinear Dynamics.- Structural Responses Due to Seismic Excitations.- Fatigue Assessment.- Human Body Vibrations.- Vehicle-Structure Interactions.

"This book provides an excellent introduction to system dynamics and understanding the dynamic response of structures. ... For those working on the dynamics of ocean structures or planning to work in this area this would be an excellent text to begin." (James K. Thompson, Noise Control Engineering Journal, Vol. 63 (3), May-June, 2015)
