Looks, there will be problem on sharing files in this platform as python is indent based program

there are lot of working examples. you can either google it or search on different topic in this forum

the concrete material for layered shell element has problem specially after yield load. I faced the problem when I was working shear wall model with shell elemnt

I want to perform bi-direction dynamic analysis but I do not know how to calculate the scale factor of ground motion in minor direction. Suppose I want to use ELcentro earthquake gound motion in X major direction and Y minor direction. The maximum value of ground motion is 0.25g in X-diection and 0....

For a couple of months, I was working on dynamic analysis of shear wall building with bolted connection. Now, I find high frequency noise in the model. The model result is in good agreement with the shake table if I take damping ratio as high as 40%. Is it possible to remove high frequency noise in ...

Have you solved the problem. I am also facing same problem in my model high frequency noise

Recently, I was using column as a shear wall. Addition of shear greatly affects the time period. I have added the shear section and the time period changes from 0.0006 sec to 0.0031 sec. #units mm, MPa, sec, N wipe; # file mkdir Output; # model basic -ndm 2 -ndf 3; node 1 0 0; node 2 0 375; node 3 0...

Because of Damping, now my curve matches with the experimental result but still I could not understand, why the experimental result is not similar to the model result. Check the fig. i.e., exp curve is smooth but my model has ups and down curve matching the fundamental frequency of building Fig is i...

Ok, the damping coefficient affects it. with increaing alpha for initial mode i.e., mass proportional, no . of frequency for displacement can be decreased but now, the amplitude is increasing

I am doing a dynamic analysis of building with bolted connection and comparing a result with the shake table test. The frequency of model matches with the experiment result and is 4Hz. but in the acceleration and displacement graph of model , no of cycles of acceleration and displacement equals to t...

Some of your node might be free

The problem is due to non-convergence in the intermediate steps. When there is non-convergence in intermediate steps, it calculates unusual too Big value. Then in the next step, it again uses this unusual big value

The output accelearation is same as input for about 0.1g, but when I increase the input accel to 0.3g then the ouput accel becomes about 6g. What might be the reason for the increase in output acceleration at the node.
