Time history
Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-006020
A record of the values of a physical quantity or system response as a function of time. This data is collected from sensors or generated by a simulation to show how a variable like stress, displacement, or temperature changes over a specific duration. In structural engineering, a time history analysis uses this data to evaluate a structure's response to dynamic loads like earthquakes or wind gusts.
