2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What does 2DOF stand for?
Think about a system with two separate masses.
Name one analysis method used in evaluating base-isolated structures.
Both terms start with 'Time' or 'Response'.
What does the 'M' represent in the Equation of Motion?
M's significance is in its relationship to acceleration.
True or False: Time history analysis provides a detailed view of the structure's performance over time during an earthquake.
Consider what aspect of the motion is tracked.
Given a structure with a mass of 5000 kg and a damping coefficient of 10 Ns/m, derive the equation of motion including the stiffness multiplier and ground acceleration of 5 m/s².
Remember to keep each term consistent with units and parameters.
Assume a building uses time history analysis to evaluate responses to a ground motion with varying acceleration over time. Discuss its impact relative to a simple average response from response spectrum analysis.
Think about the detailed aspect of how structures react as conditions change.
