The element SFI_MVLEM_3D works perfectly when: direction of ACC is 1 timeSeries Path 11 -dt $dt -filePath $filePath1 -factor $fac pattern UniformExcitation 100 1 -accel 11 -fact 1 But crashed in the first step when: direction of ACC is 2 timeSeries Path 110 -dt $dt -filePath $filePath2 -factor $fac ...

The problem resolved!
In the 3.5 version instead of "-section", "section" works in the recorder syntax.

How is it possible to run a simulation with a cyclic load protocol working in both (x and y) directions? the x direction loading is displacement based and the y -direction loading is force base protocols! I know how to work with one of each using the opensees integrator, yet don't know how to do so ...

Is the issue solved yet??

I did a dynamic SDOF analysis using the ModIMKPeakOriented material and the results were quite different from what is happening! Bilin material with the same properties gives much more appropriate responses! Is there any bug with this ModIMKPeakOriented in the transient analysis? or it is me that ha...

i'm having the same issue!

I could not comprehend your problem. Is not there any output?

I could resolve the problem by reinstall tcl tk file and making sure that it is installed via adminstrator

what is the output when you input "smpd"?

So, is not it possible to use shellmitc4 via openseesSP?

Hi I am having one intimidating problem.

Is it possible to apply two different Aftershocks to a Main shock induced structure in opensees????
I mean the main shock is applied once and without repeating the main shock analysis, analyze the structure under 2 different aftershocks!
