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
seismic hazard module that can be used to compute the mean annual frequency of collapse
options are available to visualize the results, making IIDAP a useful tool for practitioners,
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

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)

Panel A -of the main console- is the project file management panel, which creates a new project
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
the current project components and parameters. This button will open a window that

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,
