A new approximation for spectral velocity ordinates at short periods.

Response spectrum methods in earthquake-resistant design sometimes require information on the spectral velocity (SV) for a given single-degree-of-freedom oscillator and specified seismic hazard. SV has been conventionally approximated as pseudo spectral velocity (PSV) in the case of lightly damped s...
