Topic A: Response spectrum modelling
___________________________________________________
Concept of response spectrum is best to be explained with a 12-min video listed below, recorded by Prof. Nelson Lam:
The subsequent recordings were done by Prof. Nelson Lam, to explain on the classical response spectrum models and its relevance to Eurocode 8.
1. Conversion of Response Spectra Acceleration (RSA) to Response Spectra Velocity (RSV)
2. Conversion of Response Spectra Velocity (RSV) to Response Spectra Displacement (RSD)
3. Acceleration, velocity and displacement regions of a response spectrum
4. The fourth format of a response spectrum: ADRS Diagram
5. Constructing response spectrum to Eurocode 8 format
6. Constructing response spectrum to AS1170.4 (2018)
Topic B: Site soil amplifications modelling
___________________________________________________
The generic concept of site effect is explained below, with recordings done by Prof. Nelson Lam:
1. Code models of soil response spectrum 2. Shear wave velocities and site natural periods, with fundamental concepts explained 3. Dynamic properties of soil and modelling of bedrock conditions
