I want to model Triple Friction Pendulum Element in opensees. i have downloaded TPB examples from this link:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/214 ... tation.rar
when I run it on opensees this error comes up:

OpenSees > source CheckingTripleFrictionPendulum_1DDynamics_ConstFriction.tcl

e : TripleFrictionPendulum
expected integer but got "0.36"
I'm using the opensees 2.4.6 and make no change to the model.

The documentation you have downloaded is for the previous version of the element, it works for the OpenSees 2.4 or earlier. You should go down to each example (at http://opensees.berkeley.edu/wiki/index ... um_Element) and download the file attached to the example for the current version of OpenSees.
