Let me tell you something frankly. You are 100% wrong. What you tell me is that "in all of pin connections , for example a 1000 DOF structure, the rotation is same" and "if not, there will be a little accuracy problem".

I am simply not on your side.
thanks

Silvia,

Thank you very much for your time and clarification.

Hi hugo_esquivel,

I am afraid of using equalDOF. In all of pin connections moment is zero but rotations are the same? I think NO. So they could not be assumed as equalDOF. Thanks for your time and help

Thank you very much Silvia, "BuildingTcl" is a piece of great work. Thanks for your time. I have a question and I would appreciate if u make it clear for me: How I can define pin-pin connections for a nonlinear beam-column element (at both ends). Please not that: 1) I have to use nonlinear...

I have a simple question, but I am not sure about the answer! :arrow: How I can define pin-pin connections for a nonlinear beam-column element (at both ends). Your time and help is really appreciated Please not that: :shock: 1) I have to use nonlinear beam-column element for my buckling model (so tr...

Dear Silvia, Thank you very much for your time and invaluable help. I am working on this for 2-3 days :( . For one-directional pushover I know how to build the Tcl but I have one main problem dealing with Cyclic Pushover Analysis!! :arrow: Here is my problem: :arrow: How I can reverse the direction ...

Hi,

Can I conduct “Static Reversed Cyclic Analysis” (Cyclic Pushover Analysis) using OpenSees Navigator?

If yes, where and how I should introduce the maximum displacements at each cycle to the OpenSees Navigator?

Thanks for your time,
