Thank you very much! Dr.! And, so the Fy=1.5 is not from the test?

Today, I found that the groundmotion and rayleigh damping are not work, for example, I enter the Sine wave and the rayleigh for the cantilever, but the cantilever's displacement plot always sine wave. So, I want to know why? Thanks everybody! #units: mm, N, MPa, ton model BasicBuilder -ndm 2 -ndf 3 ...

Dr. Aschellenberg I saw the OpenSees and OpenFresco examples of PortalFrame, why the elasticity modulus of uniaxialMaterial Steel02 is not equal with the elasticity modulus of expElement? Could you tell me the reason? Thank you! uniaxialMaterial Steel02 1 1.5 2.8 0.01 18.5 0.925 0.15 0.0 1.0 0.0 1.0...

Hi, I build a model, but the force of output data plot like rectangle. What's wrong with my script? I think whether the element parameters have error? But I can't find out~~~ Please help me! Thanks everybody! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------...

Sir, you mean the version 2.5.3 of Navigator is not for the version 2.4.4 of OpenSees? Sir, by the way, recently I use a simply portal frame to run the Hybrid Testing, but the simulation displacement(displacement data small like 0.5mm) is not equal the actuator's displacement(displacement data very ...

Hi, I build a model of VBrace with Navigator, but there are some problems which shows that "WARNING: Invalid option -cMass in: element Truss 9 $iNode $jNode $A $matTag <-rho $rho> <-doRayleigh $flagh> Invalid Args want: element TrussSection $tag $iNode $jNode $sectTag <-rho $rho> TclElementComm...

Hi I want to run the nonlinear dynamic elastoplastic analysis about a simply RC structure. But the error remind that "WARNING:CTestEnergyIncr::test<>-failed to converge after:300 interations NewtnRaphson::solveCurrentStep<>-the ConvergenceTest object failed in test<> DirectIntegrationAnalysis::...

Sir, whether the Version 2.4.4 include update code? And now, I take out the integrator's code.

I found some useful integrators in "SUBVERSION REPOSITORIES of OPENSEES". If I want to use it, how can I check the parameters of these integrators, like AlphaOS, NewmarkExplicit, NewmarkHSIncrReduct and so on. http://opensees.berkeley.edu/WebSVN/diff.php?repname=OpenSees&path=%2Ftrunk%...

what are different between the node mass and the constant gravity load? If I build the model like this. The upper nodes how to be selected the node mass or to be caculated the mass of beam and then set up? #_________________ #| mass of beam### | #| ############ ## | #| mass of column# | #| #########...

Hello everyone, Recently, I edit a Hybrid Simulation with Opensees and OpenFresco, the procedure is similar with those successful examples. But, when I run this script, the recorder couldn't work right, I am looking for the wrong many many times, but I couldn't solve it... If someone want connect me...

Dear sir, I have three questions. 1. After I set the units, how can I embed it into the groundmotion? 2. I download the groundmotion data from this web(http://peer.berkeley.edu/smcat/index.html), but the accel data like this "-0.004524259" which is too small, how can I change it? The other...

Thank you fmk! I found that if I want to use the "BM68elx.acc" , I must change the digital matrix of this file's content(download from the "opensees Examples" ), just like become X*X to X*1. How can I change the matrix? Use "READSMDFILE"?

After I script "timeSeries Series 10 -dt 0.01 -filePath BM68elc.acc -factor 1
pattern UniformExcitation 2 1 -accel 10" and run this process, then the system tell me that "could not open file BM68elc.acc".
Please help me !!! Thanks!
