Displaying response spectra

ViewWave has a function to compute and display response spectra. You can choose a type of response spectra from the [Response spectrum] submenu in the [View] menu. There are;

  • Acceleration response spectrum (Sa)
  • Velocity response spectrum (Sv)
  • Displacement response spectrum (Sd)
  • Pseudo velocity response spectrum (on tripartite-axis, pSv)
  • Energy spectrum (Ve)
