Assignment 5

1. Derive a Rayleigh damping matrix for a 3-story shear building to achieve 5% damping for the 1st and 3rd modes, and calculate the damping ratio for the 2nd mode. 2. Derive equations to determine the lateral floor displacements of an undamped 3-story shear building subjected to an impulsive force at the 1st floor. 3. Use modal analysis to determine the steady-state displacements of a 3-story shear frame subjected to harmonic loading at the top floor, and calculate the story shears using two different methods to show they give identical results.

Submission Date: ---

1. The properties of a three-story shear building are given below. Derive a Rayleigh
damping matrix such that the damping ratio is 5% for the first and third modes.
Compute the damping ration for the second mode. Where m = 4.5 × 104 kg, k = 3.03 ×
107 N/m.

m 3k/9

m 7k/9

2. The undamped system shown below is subjected to an impulsive force at the first-floor
mass: 𝑝1 (𝑡) = 𝑝0 𝛿(𝑡). Derive equations for the lateral floor displacements as function
of time.

3. The shear frame shown below is subjected to harmonic force 𝑝(𝑡) = 𝑝0 sin 𝜔𝑡 at the
top floor. Determine the steady-state displacements using modal analysis. Determine
the story shears (considering steady-state response only) by two methods: (a) directly
from displacements (without introducing equivalent static forces), and (b) using static
forces. Show that the two methods give identical results.
