The OpenSees Community

Silvia, thanks for your reply but, if i pun unit (1) in numBars, then opensees crashes and gives a mesage about # Determine the spacing for the remaining bars in the y direction set spacingY [expr ($coreY-$ncoreY)/($numBars-1)] So, if I have a rectangular with 4 bars (one at each corner), what shoul...

Dear All, I am trying to understand if the numBars of the RCsection proc is a)the numbers of bars in each side of the section or b)the numbers of bars in each side of the section minus 1 in order not to count 2 times the corner bars the arguments of the proc are proc RCsection {id h b cover coreID c...

I am trying to run a tcl, having the following commands:

recorder Drift dr2001x.out 1 5 1 3
recorder Drift dr2001y.out 1 5 2 3

and I get the error:

OpenSeesOutput
DriftRecorder::Initialize() - no nodal id's set

so, I can't get the drifts. Does anybody knows what's wrong??

Frank, I found theSysOfEqn, and inside it has cector X. Is X the Stiffness Matrix? If it is, why it is a Vector and not a Matrix, and in which way is the data stored there? I sent you an e-mail with a print/screen of the current code's view. Is there any documentation that explains the theory of the...

Ok, i initialized the variable iperm_r as:

int *iperm_r = NULL;

and it works

Thanks frank

Ok, thanks

Thank you fmk,

I 'll see that

Now, with you help I run the exe from the code, and i got the same message:

"Run-Time Check Failure #3 - The variable 'iperm_r' is being used without being defined."

with 2 preferences: break and continue

Where is the Global stiffness matrix of the structure after the rigidDiaphragm constrain has been imposed???

I have only find the element's Stiffness Matrix.

Is there a function that returns the Global stiffness matrix?

When I run tcl editor, i can run my example at any directory it is.

Now that i am running source code, where sould i put my example,

so as to dont take a message: no such file or directory

I made an OpenSees.exe with the code I got from the site (stable one),

then I copied the exe at the right directory so as the tcl editor call it,

and i got an error message (that i sent it via e-mail, how could i attach it at the forum?)

Why???

Ok, there was a problem with tcl libs,

because the site of tcl didn't work and i found tcl at another site

Thank you fmk

I'm trying to compile the code, and i get the following message: c:\opensees\src\tcl\tclvideoplayer.h(47) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'tcl.h': No such file or directory At many files. I tried to install tcl again, but the coresponding web page doesn't seems to work. Can you help m...

Ok fmk,

Thank you, I will do it so

I would like to ask you,

how could I have as output the stiffness matrix of my structure.

Thanks a lot,
