Learning Outcomes
The students, after the successful completion of the course, will be able to determine the dynamic properties of single degree of freedom systems with and without damping. They will be able to compute the response due to external load of single-degree of freedom systems. Understanding the concept of the response and design spectrum (elastic and inelastic). Ability to determine the dynamic characteristics of multidegree of freedom systems and compute their response due to seismic excitation using the response spectrum method which is proposed by all modern seismic codes. Principles - assumptions and steps of application of the equivalent static method. The focus of the course is to provide the necessary knowledge to understand the methods of analysis proposed by modern seismic codes.
