[For the entire collection see Zbl 0733.00015.] Lyapunov exponents play an important role in modern theories of nonlinear structural dynamics. In this paper, their application to the dynamics of engineering structures is illustrated through three problems in structural engineering. The first concerns localization of stress wave propagation through randomly disordered periodic structures. The second deals with the problem of the sensitivity to stochastic disturbance of pitch-fork bifurcation typically encountered in the buckling of slender columns and plates under stochastically fluctuating axial loads. The third example is on the stochastic stability of coupled linear elastic systems. For each example, the largest Lyapunov exponent is evaluated and its significance is discussed.
