for element: 35(dW: << 1712.25) , Where is the problem

Post by gaohouzhi » Fri Oct 15, 2010 1:09 am

Recently ,I construct a 10 story plane frame in opensees.
There are three parts: model , adding seismic load , analysis .

the model is good ,for there are none warnings comes out.

I take the bigbear records as the seismic load ,and modify the peak acceleration as 0.224 g .

And then ,I set the analysis parameters as follows:

rayleigh 0.01 0.02 0.0 0.0
system UmfPack;
constraints Plain;
test NormDispIncr 1.0e-3 100 0;
algorithm BFGS ;
numberer RCM;
integrator Newmark 0.5 0.25 ;
analysis Transient;
analyze 20000 0.005 ;

After analyzing ,WARNings come out :

WARNING - ForceBeamColumn2d::update - failed to get compatible element forces &
deformations for element: 35(dW: << 1712.25)
Domain::update - domain failed in update
Newmark::update() - failed to update the domain
WARNING BFGS::solveCurrentStep() -the Integrator failed in update()
DirectIntegrationAnalysis::analyze() - the Algorithm failed at time 5.135
OpenSees > analyze failed, returned: -3 error flag
-3

How could I identify where is wrong ,and how could I settle the problem?
