Introduction

The Interactive Interface for Dynamic Analysis Procedures (IIDAP) is a standalone MATLAB-

based program that performs various dynamic analysis procedures for deteriorating and non-

deteriorating single degree-of-freedom (SDoF) systems. These procedures include linear and

nonlinear response history analysis (RHA), incremental dynamic analysis (IDA), response

spectrum analysis (RSA), and collapse spectrum analysis (CSA). The program employs a range

of component deterioration hysteretic models that can adequately capture all the important

deterioration modes of structural components and/or systems. IIDAP also incorporates a

seismic hazard module that can be used to compute the mean annual frequency of collapse

( c) in support of probabilistic performance-based earthquake engineering. Several interactive

options are available to visualize the results, making IIDAP a useful tool for practitioners,

academics, and researchers.

This report summarizes the main modules and features of IIDAP. The theory and procedures

for each analysis type are explained. Finally, illustrative examples are presented to show the

visualization capabilities of the program.

2. IIDAP Main Console and Components

Figure 1 shows the main console of IIDAP. The console is divided into three main panels.

Panel A is the project file management panel. Panel B is the project definition panel, which

includes four buttons that define the four main components of any project: 1) the SDoF system

parameters, 2) the system force-deformation response, 3) the input ground motion, and 4) the

analysis type. For a new project, these four components shall be defined in this hierarchical

order; from top to bottom. Panel B includes three buttons for 1) running the analysis, 2)

visualizing the results, and 3) saving the results.

2.1 Project File Module

Panel A -of the main console- is the project file management panel, which creates a new project

or opens an existing project. This panel includes four buttons:

is asked to specify the name of the project as well as the saving directory (Figure 2a).

The saved project file has a *.mat extension. This is then followed by a dialogue box

to specify the project units as shown in Figure 2b.

2.2 SDoF Module

The SDoF module is shown in Figure 4. This module is used to define the main SDoF

parameters: a) the period, T, b) the mass, M, and c) the lateral stiffness, K. From

the popup menu at the top, the user can choose to define any two of those three parameters.

The third parameter is then calculated using Equations 1a-c. The user shall specify the

damping coefficient, . This is then used to calculate the damping ratio, C, using Equation 2,

in which is the circular frequency of the employed system.
