Thanks a lot! It works well now.

Hi everyone, I am trying to check whether stress and strain in a section can be obtained using 'eleResponse' command during analysis. To this end, I made a very simple 3D example for a static analysis of a cantilever beam with unit length as follows: -------------------------------------------------...

Dear Michael,

Unfortunately, I found that the element load 'beamThermal' is currently not available for 3D analysis.
Even though the issue at 'fiber' command is revolved, it would be not possible to run the code for 3D analysis.

Anyway, thanks you so much for your effort.

Jamin,

Hi everyone, I am now trying to model thermal expansion of a cantilever beam. In my model, the cantilever beam is modeled using 'Fiber Thermal' section as shown below: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- import openseesp...

It's very good to hear that this problem will be fixed in the next version.

Thank you for your efforts.

Thank you for your very quick reply !! Greatly simplified version of my code is like below (This code is for an earthquake analysis of SDOF system) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- wipe; file mkdir data; # set analysis parameters set n_step 150;...

Hi everyone I have analyzed RC columns applying zero length element and for step by step analysis I also applied an save/restore command in my code. The problem is when I used a typical material such as concrete02, steel02 for the zero length element, everything was fine. However, after I changed th...

Thank fmk for your kind reply. I am sorry that I uploaded wrong code. My code is like below. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- proc buildModel { } { wipe model basic -ndm 2 -ndf 3 node 1 0 0; node 2 0 5; geomTransf Linear 1 element elasticBeamColumn 1 ...

Hello everyone I made three types of codes for simple static pushover analysis as shown below. My model is SDOF system with simple elastic material. -Analysis 1- pattern Plain 1 Linear { load 2 10 0. 0. }; integrator LoadControl 1.0 analysis Static analyze 1 integrator LoadControl 1.5 analysis Stati...

Thank you for your reply

Maybe there is some problem on using save/restore command for concrete04 material model.

I checked that the problem was occurred only if I use concrete04.

For other material models, everything is well analyzed.

Hi everyone I am trying to use database/save/restore command to do an step by step time history analysis. I compared the results of two types of analysis. Analysis 1: Step by step analysis is not used Database/save/restore command is not used. All step is analyzed in single analysis. Analysis 2: Ste...
