Hello, PTC community,
I defined a function in Mathcad prime 9 for plotting the displacement response (Y-axis) versus time (X-axis). This plot is for a single time period T.
I want to get the maximum displacement (Y-value) from the graph for each time period T.
For example, I want the maximum displacement values from the plot for Time period T if T= 0.02, 0.2, 4.
eg
T= 0.2 max. displacement: xx
T:0.4 max. displacment xxx and so on.
I attached the mathcad file and it imports a text file containing earthquake data which is also attached for your reference.
I would really appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Abdur

Here are my 2 cents. A simple function should do the job.

Hi Abdur_2063,
Thank you for your question.
I’d like to recommend to bring more details and context to your initial inquiry.
It also helps to have screenshot(s) or a short video to better understand what you are trying to do in your process.
This will increase your chances to receive meaningful help from other Community members.

Thank you very much for responding and helping.
I have been using Mathcad to apply the Newmark method and successfully plotted the displacement versus time for earthquake ground motion. However, I'm facing a challenge in extracting the maximum displacement values for each time period (T=0.02s to 4s in increments of 0.02s) from my plot.
My goal is to create a new plot with time on the X-axis and the corresponding maximum displacement values on the Y-axis (Response Spectrum Curve)
I've attached the Mathcad file for reference. I would greatly appreciate your insights.
Thanks,
Abdur
