Information

This model adds one further element for the floor plate. Long-term effects dominate the excitation of the floor plate and thus the excitation fundamentally differs from excitation of outer walls. Adding an extra element for the floor plate leads to a finer resolution of the dynamic behaviour but increases calculation times. The floor plate is parameterized via the length of the RC-chain nFloor, the vector of the capacities CFloor[nFloor], the vector of the resistances RFloor[nFloor] and the remaining resistance RFloorRem.

The image below shows the RC-network of this model.
