Abstract
A spectrum analysis is one in which the results of a modal analysis are used with a known spectrum to calculate displacements and stresses in the model. It is mainly used in place of a time-history analysis to determine the response of structures to random or time-dependent loading conditions such as earthquakes, wind loads, ocean wave loads, jet engine thrust, rocket motor vibrations, and so on. The paper is to analysis displacements and stresses of a cable-stayed bridge that is used with a known earthquake spectrum.
