OpenseesMP incremental dynamic analysis

Post by andresriffov » Thu Jan 17, 2019 9:12 am

Hello

I am trying to perform an incremental dynamic analysis using OpenseesMP with one ground motion record and several scale factors,so i assigned one scale factor for each core, my problem is when i open the output files i obtain the same results in each core which is wrong because these results should be different. Somebody can help me to solve this.

Regards

Hey, Can you tell me how you were able to solve this?. I am facing the same issue with my time-history analysis.

Make sure all analyses use different file names

Thanks. All the file names for loads are different but dependent on the processor id. File name = processor id+1. The processors are reading the files correctly but the analysis is done using the load file corresponding to the last processor. Hence same results from every processor. Is there anything wrong in assigning the files names this way?.
