Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Discuss how neglecting the porosity of materials and incorporating only idealized mass can affect the performance analysis of MDOF structures during dynamic events.
💡 Hint: Consider how realistic models incorporate various material characteristics.
Question 2
A multi-story building with 8 floors is analyzed using an MDOF model. If each floor has its own mass and stiffness, explain how you would set up the modeling equations to account for each degree of freedom.
💡 Hint: Think about the relationships each component has with the others.
