OpenSees Lab on NEES hub

Frank,

1-I tried to run my model using OpenSees Hub and it took 15 min and 50 sec. When I use my own computer it takes 14 min 58 sec! Since it's supposed the NEES hub be very very very faster than normal PCs Do I need to add any command to my code or do I us the NEES hub tool wrongly?
2-I have still problem downloading OpenSees interpreter for parallel analyzing! http://opensees.berkeley.edu/OpenSees/c ... .1.exe.zip

Thanks,

sorry for the delay, i have been busy working on other things.

1) are you just running a regular sequential script?
2) working on the parallel version. not quite so easy this time as the machine on which i used to build it died and the parallel
version requires an awful lot of other libraries to be compiled and linked.

Thanks Frank for your reply,
1) The only commands that I have in my scripts to account for the parallel analysis are as follows:

set parallel 1; # 0 -- sequential run (e.g., on PC)
# 1 -- parallel run
switch $parallel {
0 {
set solver "SparseSPD"
set outfmt "-file"
}
1 {
set solver "Mumps"
set outfmt "-xml"
}
}

2) thanks for your great job. It seems that this time it may take very long! :(

are you outputting a lot of data?

I don't know what's the scale but here are my recorder commands:

eval "recorder Node $outfmt NEESUndrainedTravelingTimeVerticalOnPile.dsp -time -node $SurfaceNodes $pileNodes -dof 1 2 3 disp"
eval "recorder Node $outfmt NEESUndrainedTravelingTimeVerticalOnPile.acc -time -node $SurfaceNodes $pileNodes -dof 1 2 3 accel"

The output is two files each around 3.5 MB

I seem to be having a similar issue, and suggestions? This is a bit frustrating. Thank you!
