Newmarks Method, the acceleration within a time interval is the mid-value of

1.3 Numerical Example
Consider the North-South component of horizontal ground acceleration recorded
at El Centro, California in 1940 (Figure 1.5(a). The relative displacement response of a
building is calculated as per procedure mentioned in Section 1.2, and shown in Figure
1.5. The exercise is repeated for natural periods
n
T of vibration of 0.5s, 1.0s and 2.0s, and
for damping ratios , of 0, 0.02 and 0.05.
