Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to study the elastic and inelastic response of single degree of freedom systems for Koyna accelerograms as recorded as well as for modified.
For elastic analysis the accelerogram Is derived in any arbitrary direction from the recorded accelerogrems in mutually perpendicular directions. The elastic response of structures is studied for the modified accelerograms, The effect of orientation of this direct .on with respect to recorded accelerogram on the elastic response is also studied.
For the inelastic analysis the earthquake record is modified by al gyring its time base by a factor of 1, 5, The effect of this modification is studied on the inelastic response of the structures.
