Abstract:
All real structures behave dynamically when loaded or displaced. Additional inertial forces are equal to the force in acceleration using Newton's second law. If the forces or the change of places are applied very slowly, the inertial forces can be ignored and a static analysis can be done. Therefore, it can be said that dynamic analysis is a simple extension of static analysis. In addition, all potential real structures have unlimited degrees of freedom. Therefore, the most critical part of structural analysis is creating a model with a limited number of degrees of freedom that has several almost massless members and several nodes, which can estimate the behavior of the structure appropriately. The mass of the structure can be concentrated in the nodes. Also, for a linear elastic system, the stiffness characteristics of the members can be estimated very accurately - according to the experimental data - although the estimation of dynamic loading, energy loss, and boundary conditions can be very difficult. Therefore, the nonlinear dynamic analysis method is usually used in theoretical studies and is not used in routine designs. So, it is a worthwhile task to propose a simple and computer method for seismic estimation of structures. For this purpose, POA has been introduced. In many cases, we can get more valuable information from POA than nonlinear dynamic analysis, this method is simple and economical and has attracted more attention nowadays.
