. See Table 2.
Table 2. Results from Modal Analysis including Mode Coefficients
Finally, determine the displacement response for the mode shapes by multiplying the mode
coefficient with the relative displacement.
Table 3. Results from Modal Analysis including Mode Coefficients and Displacement Response
Now that the responses have been determined, an appropriate combination method must be
chosen for combining the responses. Also notice how the first three mode shapes account for
approximately 75% of the total mass, which means more modes need to be analysed to capture a
more accurate response.
Conclusion
The study of response spectra analysis is complex. This article has only provided a brief overview
and deferred discussion on single degree of free systems (SDOF), multi-degree of free systems
(MDOF), response spectrum regions, zero point acceleration, etc. Remember response spectra
analysis is very sophisticated and similar to martinis; they are better shaken not stirred.
