yeah, I am not quite sure about my response spectrum comparison and guess that you are right. Maybe it is a dumb question but how can I display the response spectrum from the input motion?
thank you for your help bkal,
I get my response spectrum after the FNA. It is the response spectrum from the joint resulting from the input motion (sine function). I compare the value of this response spectrum at 5Hz with the value of the max absolute acceleration of the joint and they are not...
that is the first time I use sap2000, so I don´t have much experience with the programm.
-what exactly do you mean with compatible? My time history function is a simple sine-function (T=1, Amplitude 1g)
-my damping values are zero (when I define the Load Case and when I display the response...
thanks for your help,
my Time-History-Function is a user defined sine-function (period = 1) and my damping values are zero. My Load Case Type is FNA. After the analysis I looked at the max absolute joint acceleration and at the Response Spectrum Curves (by 5 Hz - natural frequency SDOF System)...
Hey Guys,
I hope you can help me.
I have got a comprehension question about the development of a response spectrum. I have modeled a SDOF-System (with a natural frequency of 5 Hz) in sap2000 and stressed the system with a time-history-function.
The acceleration results of the single joint are...
Hallo ,
I´m having an issue with Friction Isolator. I´ve defined a SDOF-System (look attachment). There is a single mass in x-Direction (200). I´ve defined a stiffness in U1 and U2 direction (nonlinear).
Now I want to change the Friction coefficient (slow and fast) to calculate the...
