Dear all users,I'm a beginner user, so I have a problem that need your help:In a model, how can I analyze the time history of earthquake and other dynamic loads (such as wind load time history) at the same time or different times?I would appreciate it if you could give me some advice and reference materials.

create multiple load patterns, e.g. some for earthquake and some for wind, before the same analyze command.
