Is there any limitation on the numbers of recorders using OpenSeesSP?
The recorders work individually but not together!

what do you mean by not together.

Hi,
Thanks for your response.
I am modelling a 12 storey building in 3D. The beam/column elements are elastic elements with concentrated hinges using zero length elements and shear walls are modelled using displacement beam column elements.
I wanted to record each node rotations. When I use the recorder commands for one node it works. But when it comes to recording all of the nodes, it has some errors.

what are the errors?

Hi,
Thanks for your response.
When I record the nodes in separate files ( each node in separate node command) opensees freezes. Without progressing in the analysis, it starts writing in the results folder and if I do not stop it, the volume of this folder can reach to 10 GB.
But I found the solution. I should write all of the node tags in one command of recorder. Then it is fine.

Hi,
I obtain the same results than alirezacivil . If I use a sentence with "foreach" like this:
foreach gp {1 2 3 4}
recorder Element -file "Outputs/Plates/ele59sec1forcegp $gp.out" -time -eleRange 260 603 material $gp forces
recorder Element -file "Outputs/Plates/ele59sec1defgp $gp.out" -time -eleRange 260 603 material $gp deformations
}
The dynamic Analisis doesn't work, but if I use the same sentence without foreach works, like this:
recorder Element -file "Outputs/Plates/ele59sec1forcegp1.out" -time -eleRange 260 603 material 1 forces
recorder Element -file "Outputs/Plates/ele59sec1defgp1.out" -time -eleRange 260 603 material 1 deformations
recorder Element -file "Outputs/Plates/ele59sec1forcegp2.out" -time -eleRange 260 603 material 2 forces
recorder Element -file "Outputs/Plates/ele59sec1defgp2.out" -time -eleRange 260 603 material 2 deformations
recorder Element -file "Outputs/Plates/ele59sec1forcegp3.out" -time -eleRange 260 603 material 3 forces
recorder Element -file "Outputs/Plates/ele59sec1defgp3.out" -time -eleRange 260 603 material 3 deformations
recorder Element -file "Outputs/Plates/ele59sec1forcegp4.out" -time -eleRange 260 603 material 4 forces
recorder Element -file "Outputs/Plates/ele59sec1defgp4.out" -time -eleRange 260 603 material 4 deformations
