- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Remember the nature of any collected data.
Question 5.
Explain how different statistical methods may produce different results for the same response spectrum data. What factors would you consider in choosing a method?
Show hintHide hint
Think about how different methods highlight various aspects of the data.
