Interactive Quizzes
Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.
Question 1
What type of movement is involved in translational DOF?
- Rotational
- Straight-line
- Both
💡 Hint: Consider if the motion is linear or circular.
Question 2
Coupled DOFs are present when translation and rotation are:
- True
- False
💡 Hint: Focus on the interaction between the two types of movement.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Design a simple structure that must account for translational, rotational, and coupled DOFs. Describe how each type of freedom will affect its response to seismic activity.
💡 Hint: Consider how seismic forces impact tall buildings and what systems are needed to stabilize them.
Question 2
Evaluate a structure's performance. Given it has high torsional loads during an earthquake, discuss the implications of ignoring coupled degrees of freedom in your analysis.
💡 Hint: Think about how complex loads might interact and affect building safety.
