The characteristic equation corresponding to the eigenvalue problem of matrix A can be
obtained from Eq. (10.125). It can be seen that the Wilson

method is unconditionally
stable if

EXAMPLE 10.11 Transient Response of a Frame
The frame of Fig. 10.2 is chosen to illustrate the results of the use of different integration
schemes. The system mass and stiffness matrices M and K are given by Eq. (9) of Example
10.1 and Eq. (11) of Chapter 5, Example 5.5. The damping matrix C is assumed to be
