Question: Problem 3 . 9 Use Seismo - Signal or USEE to plot the acceleration, velocity and displacement response spectra for the 1 9 9 9

Problem 3.9
Use Seismo-Signal or USEE to plot the acceleration, velocity and displacement response spectra for the 1999 Kocaeli (Turkey) earthquake (Station Dcze, horizontal component). Consider an elastic system with 5\% viscous damping and an inelastic system with ductility of 4. For the latter system, assume two inelastic response models, namely linear elastic-perfectly plastic and linear elastic strain hardening. Use four values for the post-yield hardening of \(1\%,5\%,10\%\) and \(20\%\). Comment on the results. For the inelastic spectra use a viscous damping of \(0.5\%\).
