Concrete01 for dynamic analysis

Post by ningxz »

Hi everybody.
there is a question. I use concrete01 and steel02 material to simulate a two stroy RC frame, the dynamic analysis result reveal that the axis force of the first floor column is compression but the y-direction displacement in the first floor is positive.
is there anybody come across the same question?

nonlinear beam column element. I think maybe the change of neutral axis during the whole analysis cause the element centerline longer
