A modal pushover analysis procedure for estimating seismic demands for buildings.

Developed herein is an improved pushover analysis procedure based on structural dynamics theory, which retains the conceptual simplicity and computational attractiveness of current procedures with in variant force distribution. In this modal pushover analysis (MPA), the seismic demand due to individ...
