Can MUMPS be used directly to the full model or do we also need to use an MPI implementation (and create partitions of the full model?)

Thanks

Hi Ziad,
yes, I am using Ubuntu
It is working, although it has several limitations.
Since Opensees was created a long time ago, I wonder if anything better has been implemented.


Tnx

Hello,
I created a simple cube and meshed it using StBrick
Is there any way to apply automatically a pressure on one face?
Or do I need to apply forces at every node of the loading face?

Tnx

Hello,
is there any recommended tool for meshing 3D solid models and importing them to OpenseesPy?
I am aware only of https://github.com/jaabell/gmsh2opensees which can be used to import mesh from GMSH
Do you know anything similar or already implemented in OpenseesPy?
Thank you

what is the way to check the stderr output?
thank you

I think you should test this out for yourself. Thank you for your comment. Yes, I tried but the results are different. If I am not making a theoretical mistake, I think the problem is because the two-node link does not consider the damping from the "region command". Without opting for '-d...

Hello everyone, I could have done a few tests before making this question, but I'll have a try: I am modelling a pile with lateral springs using the two-node link element. I created an uniaxial Elastic material associated with the link. I applied the Rayleigh damping to the model excluding (default ...
