Open in Dynamic Analysis

Response spectra input files contain dynamic pipe forces. These time history loads are determined from pressure transient loading by the Sunrise System's PIPENET package. The PIPENET interface reads the output file generated by PIPENET, extracts the information needed, and generates the response spectra. The generated response spectrum files can then be used for the dynamic analysis in CAESAR II.
