pyStrata provides classes to programmatically perform site response analysis. It does not provide a default workflow -- instead it is meant to be used to define custom workflows. However, regardless of the process the follows parts need to be used:
- Define the :ref:`input motion <input-motion>`
- Construct the :ref:`site profile <site-profile>`
- Define the site response :ref:`calculator <calculator>`
- Select what :ref:`output <outputs>` should be computed
Once these components are assembled the calculations can be performed and the outputs plotted and saved.

pyStrata permits use of both time series and random vibration theory site
response. Time series motions are created using a TimeSeriesMotion and one
of three methods. Whereas, Random vibration theory motions are created through
three classes: RvtMotion for directly specifiying Fourier amplitudes and
durations, CompatibleRvtMotion for specifying the motion by the
acceleration-response, and SourceTheoryRvtMotion for computing the motion
by point-source parameters.
