Problem in Bilin usage.

Post by alima2065 »

Hi dears
I want to use modified Ibarra-Krawinkler deterioration model for my steel frames. For testing I have made a simple cantilever beam with concentrated spring at an end. But I don’t know why i don't have any reaction in node 1 that has been fixed!! I always use these recorders and i think i made another wrong. I have checked it exactly. Would please inform me what I do wrong?

Hello !
Maybe you should change "element zeroLength 2 1 2 -mat $eleID -dir 3" into "element zeroLength 2 1 2 -mat $eleID -dir 6". Try it !

I have the similiar problem.But I get a very large peroid when I do the eigen analysis. When i change the "equalDOF 1 2 1 2" into "equalDOF 1 2 1 2 3", the peroid seems reasonable. But then i do the pushover analysis , the base force is 0. Who can help me ?
