Re: Problems with eleLoad

Thanks professor, that worked!! I'm still having problems with my 3D RC frame model, but they are related to another topic. Again, thanks!!

Re: Problems with eleLoad

Professor, thanks for the reply. I tried a simply supported beam (in 3D) and still getting zero response. from openseespy.opensees import * import openseespy.postprocessing.Get_Rendering as opsplt wipe() # Create ModelBuilder (with 3 dimensions and 6 DOF/node) model('basic', '-ndm', 3, '-ndf', 6) # ...

Problems with eleLoad

I'm currently working on a 3D RC frame model on openseespy. I'm having several problems which I've managed to resolve some of them. Now, while trying correct and error I became aware that when I use the command eleLoad to apply a load to a beam or column (with type 'beamUniform' for example) I get z...

Re: "eleLoad" command not working with "forceBeamColumn" element

I'm currently working on a 3d frame on openseespy and I'm having the same problem. I'm getting zeros in forces/reaction after applying 'beamUniform' load to a forcebeamcolumn.

Re: Converting a model from 2d to 3d

Professor Scott,

I tried 'section' (without the '-'), and it worked!!! That definitely solved the problem. I would have never figured it out by myself. Thanks a lot!!

Converting a model from 2d to 3d

I'm currently working in a simple model of a RC circular contilever column (fibers). I performed gravity, pushover, and dynamic anlysis for calibration on the 2d model with no problems. I'm now trying to create a 3d model of the column. I changed the -ndm and -ndf as required, but when the model is ...
