Apply Earthquake in Any Direction

In this example we want to apply earthquake in any direction to a 3D elastic frame by using UniformExcitation command in OpenSEES software. Presented method is usable for any other 3D structure. In OpenSEES by UniformExcitation command we can apply acceleration in global directions. But it is not possible to apply acceleration in a direction other than global directions. To gain this end we have to rotate model through an introduced angle. So model geometry is dependent on that angle. The intended frame is a one bay two story elastic frame as in fig 1.
