A 12-m-long and 5-m-high wall is constructed of two layers of 1 -cm-thick sheetrock ( k = 0.17 W/m .K ) and spaced 16 cm by wood studs ( k = 0.11 W/m .K ) and whose cross section is 16 cm × 5 cm . The studs are placed vertically 60 cm apart, and the space between them is filled with fiberglass insulation ( k = 0.034 W/m .K ) . and The house is maintained at 20°C and the ambient temperature outside is -9°C. Taking the heat transfer coefficients at the inner and outer surfaces of the house to be 8.3 and 34 W/m 2 -K, respectively, determine (a) the thermal resistance of the wall considering a representative section of it and (b) the rate of heat transfer through the wall.

Assume multiple single degree of freedom systems with natural periods T ∈ [0.05, 2.00] seconds with in-crement of period dT = 0.05 seconds. Assume three cases of damping ratio: Case (A) ξ = 0%; Case (B)ξ = 2%; Case (C) ξ = 5%. The systems are initially at rest. Thus, the initial conditions are u(t = 0) = 0 anḋu(t = 0) = 0. The systems are subjected to the base acceleration that was provided in the ElCentro.txt file(i.e., first column). For the systems in Case (A), Case (B), and Case (C) and for each natural period computethe peak acceleration, peak velocity, and peak displacement responses to the given base excitation. Please,use the Newmark method for β = 1/4 (average acceleration) to compute the responses. Create threeplots with three lines in each plot. The first plot will have the peak accelerations in y-axis and the naturalperiod of the system in x-axis. The second plot will have the peak velocities in y-axis and the natural periodof the system in x-axis. The third plot will have…
