Thanks cbrn. I looked into it more and actually found a book about earthquake engineering and it helped me figure out the design spectrum for earthquakes which was much more simplified with about 7 frequencies.
After doing some more reading, would it be better for me to do a transient dynamic analysis and input the data as a displacement table? Might that allow me to get all of the data in there? I realize I would need to convert the data into displacement and time somehow but I'm sure I could figure...
I am working on a spectrum analysis for a water tower in order to see how it would respond to an earthquake.
I've managed to get the earthquake data in terms of frequencies and acceleration responses but I have about 2000 data pairs I would like to input.
I'm ready to fill out the FREQ and SV...
