Abstract The response of three-dimensional frames subjected to an arbitrary
dynamic force is studied. The method of mode superposition
is used to obtain the frame response solution. Two different modeling
systems are used to idealize the frame. These are the "discrete
mass system" and the "continuous mass system." For an example frame configuration, the eigenvalues and
eigenvectors for four different discrete mass models are investigated.
These four models represent varying degrees of discrete mass modeling
sophistication for the frame. In addition, the eigenvalues are
investigated by considering a continuous mass model of the example
frame.
The time-history response for the discrete mass model is determined
using both a numerical procedure with a digital computer,
and by using an analog computer.
Listings of the digital computer programs are provided. The
analog computer circuitry used in the solution is also given.
