SVGM

Post by susan »

Dear all,

Spatially varying ground motion (SVGM) is caused by incoherence effect, wave passage, and local site conditions.
How can we apply this in opensees?

tnx.

use a MultiSupportGround motion .. you have to specify the ground motion at each support, whethe this be the base of the structure or soil boundary
