earthquake analysis time scaling
earthquake analysis time scaling
(OP)
Hello
I want to perform a dynamic-explicit analysis in order to see the response of a structure Under a real seismic loading(acc or disp) but the total time of the loading is 38 sec and it will be a time consuming mention that I can't increase a lot the size of the elements. Is there a practical way to sqweeze the loading time with conserving the structure response? it's important since these simulations will be compared with real shaking table tests.
Thanks in advance

Do you have to use Explicit? What about linear or nonlinear transient dynamic in Standard?
RE: earthquake analysis time scaling
Plz can you explain the difference between explicit and transient dynamic in Standard and which Step should I use?
Thank you

See section 6.3.1 Dynamic analysis procedures: overview.

Implicit method it's a memory consuming I can't use it.
At this moment it's a simple stucture of 1 floor, I am tying to performs simulations of a real earthquake motion where 38 sec is its total duration.
Thank you all
