hello everyone i hope you be fine i have a post tensioned column model with TendonL01 Material as post tensionening membres which modeled with truss elements. so i want to know which one of these materials is more accurate for post tensioning ? I think that TendonL01 Material sometimes makes some bu...

Thank you dear fmk , It works.

hello everyone I modeled a post tensioned concrete column with Concrete04 & TendonL01 materials then I confronted an error message when I ran cyclic analysis. here is the error message : WARNING: CTestNormDispIncr::test() - failed to converge after: 10 iterations current Norm: 3.29944e-006 (max: 1e-...

hi professor McKenna
The OpenSees 2.5.0 does not display nodes in 2D frames by recorder display command.
I tried this command with rev 6236
Thank you

hi jyokou here is your code by the way you can fix the problem by adding the " rigidLink " command between 2 and 3 nodes wipe wipeAnalysis model BasicBuilder -ndm 2 -ndf 3 node 1 0 0 node 2 0 1000 node 3 0 1000 node 4 0 2000 fix 1 1 1 1 rigidLink beam 2 3 geomTransf Linear 1 element elasticBeamColum...

hi
i think
it's useful to increase the number of integration points in nonlinearbeamcolumn elements.

hello
i hope you be fine
i think it's better to define two members with different materials and connect both of them with rigid link command.
