On the Performance of a Structural Analysis Cost Reduction Technique When Applied To Residential Buildings
Abstract eng: Time integration is a versatile tool in structural dynamic analysis, suffering from considerable computational cost and inexactness in responses. For the special case of analysis against digitized excitations, recently a technique is proposed for integration with steps larger than the steps of excitation, and is successfully implemented in several practical analyses. In view of the social and financial importance of residential buildings, with five to twenty floors, in this paper, the performance of the recent technique regarding the structural systems of these buildings is examined and specifically it is demonstrated that even with no a priori knowledge about the structure and response, and independent of the analysis method, we can halve the computational cost in the price of trivial loss of accuracy.
