8B. ANALYSIS PART 2

CHAPTER 8B 'ANALYSIS' 136 In the "Show" field with an active Linear Analysis scenario with time histories: After the analysis is completed, the user can select a command from the "Display" menu to display the results graphically. This option displays the following window. In this window the user can select the direction of the earthquake (X, Y, Z or XYZ) and the scale according to which the earthquake will be visualized. the result of the analysis on the operator. It can also select a node whose response it wishes to see. Automatically the graph of the response of the selected node versus time, as well as its maximum and minimum values, is displayed at the bottom. At the same time, the selected accelerogram of the seismic excitation is displayed at the top of the window. Finally the possibility of displaying the deformed state of the carrier for each time step of the analysis. For this purpose, the model is shown in the following three-dimensional illustration, where the undeformed carrier is shown alongside the motion of the deformed carrier.
