Convergence problems

Post by archeura »

Hi!
I’ve got some convergence problems with a dynamic time history analysis.
The model I’m using is capable to reach deformation at top floor of 1%-2% of the total height with a static pushover analysis, but with dynamic analysis it doesn’t reach even 0.5%.
However I’ve noticed that the problem during the DTHA starts when –probably- the stiffness matrix has got negative values (in the PO curve there is a negative tangent).
I’m using Newmark integrator:

integrator Newmark 0.5 0.25

Bui I’ve already tried with HTT:

integrator HHT 0.6

How can I solve this problem?
The scripts I’m using is:

S1.acc is an accelerogram (Imperial Valley-EL CENTRO-1940.dat) scaled to the design PGA (0,4375g). But I’v already tried with others scaled accel. And the results are about the same.
Sorry for the length of all these!
Thank you.

Best regards.

archeura,
can you please e-mail me your files, it saves me a bit of time, and include the ground motion file, too, please.

Ok,
all seem right introducing a little hardening ratio (0.005) in Steel01 material.
This probably avoid negative or zero stifness values during analysis.
I think.
Thank you for the assistance.
Ciao Silvia, sapevo che eri italiana! :wink:
Best regards.
