Problem 13.72
Solution:
2. Natural vibration periods from Example 13.14.
3. Modal static responses.
The modal expansion of s (from Problem 13.16) is:
The modal static responses are as follows:

4. Response of modal SDF systems.
5. Response history analysis.
Substituting these in Eq. (13.1.16) gives the response
