Abstract
The purpose of this thesis was the development of a generalized structural-dynamics computer program to calculate the response of multi-degree-of-freedom systems. The user of this computer program, having a limited background in matrix algebra and vibrational analysis, can gain numerical and graphical information concerning the dynamic response of multi-degree-of-freedom structures. The user, with a minimal amount of FORTRAN experience, will find this thesis ideally suited for his needs.
