Vibration Testing and Applications in System Identification of Civil Engineering Structures
This book covers vibration testing and identification of dynamic structural systems. It starts from the fundamentals of structural dynamics, and covers the methods of modal analysis and model identification, vibration tests and the related experimental setup. It concludes with an outline of the authors‘ software, demonstrating practical applications, and illustrated with real-world case studies of full-scale structures. Theory is presented and derived step-by-step, with a detailed measurement system developed for vibration tests. This book is written for Masters students and enables them to understand the theories of system identification and empowers them to apply this in practice.
Ancient Sichuan and the Unification of China
Recent archaeological finds in China have made possible a reconstruction of the ancient history of Sichauan, the country's most populous province.

The Chinese Dark Poet: Huang Xiang and His Colorful World
Huang Xiang 黄翔, the protagonist of this book, was born on 26th December 1941 in Guidong county, Hunan province of central China. After the Communists came to power in 1949, he was imprisoned six times and severely persecuted for his free-spirited writing and his campaigns for human rights. For more than thirty years, this self-educated poet and writer, wrote secretly against the bondage of totalitarian ideology to safe-guard the freedom of speech. According to the author of the book, Huang is a great dark poet who has expressed the painful memories, fears and struggles that haunted his life creating wonderful poetic beauty in the darkness. His poetic creation is a miracle in the history of Chinese contemporary literature. We may say that Huang's identity as an unknown dark poet is conditioned by his personal, emotional and tragic experiences of struggles while facing historical events such as the Cultural Revolution from 1966 to 1976, the April 5th Movement in 1976, the Democracy Wall Movement in 1978 and the Pro-Democracy Movement in 1989 in China.
Antiquarianism and Intellectual Life in Europe and China, 1500-1800
This book is a project in comparative history, but along two distinct axes, one historical and the other historiographical. Its purpose is to constructively juxtapose the early modern European and Chinese approaches to historical study that have been called "antiquarian." As an exercise in historical recovery, the essays in this volume amass new information about the range of antiquarian-type scholarship on the past, on nature, and on peoples undertaken at either end of the Eurasian landmass between 1500 and 1800. As a historiographical project, the book challenges the received---and often very much under conceptualized---use of the term "antiquarian" in both European and Chinese contexts. R...

Geo-Narratives of a Filial Son
Huang Xiangjian, a mid-seventeenth-century member of the Suzhou local elite, journeyed on foot to southwest China and recorded its sublime scenery in site-specific paintings. Elizabeth Kindall’s innovative analysis of the visual experiences and social functions Huang conveyed through his oeuvre reveals an unrecognized tradition of site paintings, here labeled geo-narratives, that recount specific journeys and create meaning in the paintings. Kindall shows how Huang created these geo-narratives by drawing upon the Suzhou place-painting tradition, as well as the encoded experiences of southwestern sites discussed in historical gazetteers and personal travel records, and the geography of the ...
