Re: pushover with a soft horizontal link

Thank you very much.
The soft horizontal link method was suggested by a master thesis. So I think it is reasonable and try to use it. I don't know if there are some problems in my model.

Re: pushover with a soft horizontal link

I would like to do modal pushover of a tall building and need to obtaine the descending part of pushover curves for collapse analysis. For higher modes lateral loads (such as the 2nd modes), it is difficult to obtaine the descending part by applying loads on nodes of the building. So I try to use th...

pushover with a soft horizontal link

Dear all I would like to do a pushover analysis of a single story frame. There is a horizontal truss element connect with the beam of the frame. The lateral load is applied on the truss element by sp command. The analysis failed to converge. It seems like the constraint of the loading point had some...

Re: eigen analysis for mass spring system

Thank you very much Jhno.
Do you know how to set the P-Delta for Two Node Link Element or is there any document such as user's manual to introduce it. I do not understand clealy the instruction on the website “http://opensees.berkeley.edu/wiki/index ... nk_Element”.

Re: eigen analysis for mass spring system

What is the difference between 'localDisplacement' and 'basicDisplacement'? Does the former one mean the relative displacement between the two nodes of the link element?

Re: eigen analysis for mass spring system

Dear, Jhno Thank you for your inspiring answer. I replaced uniaxialMaterial MultiLinear with uniaxialMaterial Steel01 and it worked. But I can only obtaine the first three natural periods of the structure. Actually it should have 4 periods. code: wipe all model BasicBuilder -ndm 2 -ndf 3 node 1 0. 0...
