Structural dynamics
Q.1 The main differences between Static & Dynamic Analysis are: 1- Acceleration: In Static Analysis, the load doesn't vary with time, hence no acceleration exists. Conversely, in Dynamic Analysis, the load does vary with time, and the acceleration is to be considered. 2- Motion: In Static Analysis, the motion doesn't…
