Incremental dynamic analysis

[Sumatra]

This is a wellknown article in performance-based earthquake engineering which is authored by Dr. Vamvatsikos and the late Prof. Cornell.

Dimitrios Vamvatsikos and C. Allin Cornell (2002). Incremental dynamic analysis, Earthquake Engineering Structural Dynamics; 31:491–514.

Incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) is a parametric analysis method that has recently emerged in several different forms to estimate more thoroughly structural performance under seismic loads. It involves subjecting a structural model to one (or more) ground motion record(s), each scaled to multiple levels of intensity, thus producing one (or more) curve(s) of response parameterized versus intensity level.

For those interested in the concept of IDA, i suggest to have a look at the whole PhD thesis of the first author which can be found in his website. The link of the thesis is:
