In the software of SeimoSignal, if we input the hisotory of acceleration, SeimoSignal could compute the overdamped inelastic spectrum and constant-ductility inelastic Spetrum. I am truely concerned about what hysteresis rules are used to creat overdamped inelastic spectrum and constant-ductility inelastic Spetrum. Thanks!

Re: About hysteresis rule
We do not really understand why you are "truly concerned".
In any case, we note that the computation of overdamped spectra does not require any hysteretic rule.
For inelastic spectra, an elasto-plastic with hardening model is employed.
Please do read the Help System and publications cited in the latter for further clarifications.

Re: About hysteresis rule
As seismosignal help noted,"Overdamped inelastic spectra are commonly employed within a displacement-based design/assessment philosophy, and are based on the principle that a given structural system responding within its nonlinear post-yield range and dissipating energy through hysteresis, may be represented by means of an equivalent overdamped elastic system featuring (i) an effective period of vibration that corresponds to the secant stiffness at point of maximum displacement and (ii) a relatively high value of equivalent viscous damping to simulate the hysteretic damping developed by the actual nonlinear system. "
The different responses are expected for the structures with different hysteretic characteristics.In seismosignal,the computation of overdamped spectra does not require any hysteretic rule.why?
