Abstract
AbstractA method is presented for stochastic modelling of a design earthquake by a power spectral density function for seismic analysis of structures. The method can be adopted with information currently available in the form of design response spectra for earthquake motion. Accurate seismic responses of structures can be easily obtained using such stochastic models. The methods for accurate response analysis of structures with closely spaced modes and for generation of floor response spectra of a building using a prescribed ground response spectrum directly are also presented. The hypothesis that a design earthquake can be modelled by a power spectral density function is used only implicitly in developing these methods.
