Show hintHide hint
Think about how structures respond to earthquakes.
3Question 3.
What does FDM stand for?
- Finite Difference Method
- Finite Data Model
- Fast Data Management
Show hintHide hint
It’s all about breaks in the time and space dimensions.
4Question 4.
True or False: Newmark's Method can only be used for linear systems.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Think more broadly about the structures involved.
Question 5.
Given a structure modeled with MDOF, discuss how using the Mode Superposition Method can enhance understanding during an earthquake simulation. What steps would you follow?
Show hintHide hint
Start by listing the specific modes and consider the combined results!
Question 6.
Create a scenario where the Finite Difference Method would be necessary over traditional methods. What factors would dictate its use?
Show hintHide hint
Think of dynamic situations where equations change rapidly!
