M represents a mass matrix and C represents a damping matrix. Here, we state the direct time integration method, which integrate the equation as it is by direction of time. In linear problems, it is sometimes analyzed by superposition of natural mode, and it is called the mode superposition method. Given a solution at time t , a method of evaluating an accurate solution of t+t is called an implicit method.linear acceleration method and Newmark- method, etc.), while a method of making a prediction based on a solution of t is called an explicit method.central difference Normally, M and C stay constant regardless of time, yet Q changes. Linearize the inner vectors then adopt the Newton-Raphson method.
In this way, the above includes the unknown quantities thus, usually the three quantities are related under some supposition, and put them all together to make single variable in analyzation.

Here we have,
Newmark - Method 1
Newmark- method is first introduced by Newmark in 1959 and since then it has contributed various benefits in applications to the area of dynamics. This technique is signified as unconditional stability of time integration scheme, thus the dynamic analysis can be conducted with a great time increment step . Moreover, introduction of numerical damping not only to the higher order modes but also to the lower order modes is possible. The equation of motion at time t+t is given by,
Newmark- method assumes the relation of deformation and velocity at time t+t from t as in the following equation.

Newmark - Method 3
In transforming the relational expression of Newmark- method with a deformation at t+t in addition to the deformation, acceleration and velocity at t, we can express the acceleration and the velocity at t+t can be given by,
In linear problems we can use the linear stiffness matrix K and express the inner force

Executing equation of Newmark- method in linear system,

In the same way we handled stationary problems, iteration method based on the following equation can be implemented. on Newton-Raphson
Where signs in upper right side (k) indicate the k th iteration. In conducting iteration by Newmark method, if deformation is given unknown, take the difference of acceleration, deformation and velocity relational expression at the k th and k 1th iteration.

Newmark- method implementation procedures are indicated in the following. 1. Initial value calculation (a) Obtain the mass matrix M and the damping matrix C. (b) Calculate the following invariables.
2. Calculations at each step (a)Calculate the significant stiffness matrix at time t+t.
vi. If convergence exists, then the deformation, velocity and acceleration at time t+t can be evaluated in the following calculation.
