Abstract
The use of a pseudodynamic testing method to obtain a response from an impulsive loading may lead to an incorrect test result even though the test setup is properly adjusted and the time step is appropriately chosen based on general considerations. The cause to this problem is analytically explored and a pseudodynamic technique is proposed to overcome this difficulty. The technique is to perform a single small time step immediately upon termination of the applied impulse, while the other time steps can still be conducted by the time step determined from general considerations. The feasibility of this technique is analytically verified and confirmed by a series of pseudodynamic tests for both linear elastic systems and inelastic systems.
