The Time History Analysis add-on allows for a dynamic analysis of structures considering external excitations. You can define various excitation functions in tables or as a function of time.
Main features of the 'Time History Analysis' add-on are:
- Combination of user-defined time diagrams with nodal, member, and surface loads, as well as free and generated loads
- Combination of several independent excitation functions
- Design method using the linear implicit Newmark analysis or the modal analysis
- Structural damping using Rayleigh damping coefficients or Lehr's damping value
- Graphical display of results in calculation diagrams
- Result output in time steps or as an envelope over the entire time
