Does RISA 3d have the ability to do time history analysis or the equivelant to model and develop the vibration outputs for a given machine vibration input? The machine is a rotating piece of equipment supported on an elevated braced steel structure.

I know it can calculate mode shapes and develop the natural frequencies of the support structure, but can it caluclate or otherwise develop the amplitudes, velocities and accelerations for a given vibration? In the past I have just used it to check to be sure frequencies do not match the machine input, but I now have a case where I actually need to develop velocites at a given point.
 
RISA does not currently have the ability to do a time history analysis. I'm not sure when it will be added. We'd have to sit down and review our development priority list to really give a target date.
