Hello Sean,

Is the method used in this lecture an alternative to the ā€œtrapezoidal ruleā€ used in Lecture 10?
Can the ā€œtrapezoidal ruleā€ be used for MDOF?

Hey @mrgurer,

Yes and yes. You can can use the trapezoidal rule for MDoF systems. I good exercise to implement it and compare your results with CD method we demo in this lecture.
