Hi Frank It seems the Manzari-Dafalias model cannot update material stage after the first time decomposition when using multiple core processing (OpenSeesSP). I remember this was also an issue with PDMY02 due to partial missing codes and you quickly fixed it. The model works just fine with Mumps sol...

I followed the replies and made changes but still no luck with OpenSees compilation on my cluster machine. SEQUENTIAL version is compiled successfully but for PARALLEL I get the following error. Does anyone have any suggestion? make[1]: Entering directory `/home/zaka2936/OpenSees/OTHER/BLAS' make[1]...

Thanks for your reply Frank, I get an error ("Child kiled:unknown signal") and program stops working when I use the -timeSeries option. I don't let OpenSees linear interpolate the ground motion. I simply input my base motion with a very fine time step; then, based on the convergence criter...

I have a very large OpenSeesSP 3D, Fuly coupled nonlinear model. I use UniformExcitation command to apply base motion to the model. Hence, I need to add -timeSeries option to the recorder in order to record the absolute value of acceleration. The model works fine with -np 1 but it returns error with...

mo_zarrin, I am using PDMY02 for the soil material. You are right; there was a problem with update material stage due to a missing part of the code in OpenSeesSP. But, Frank solved the problem long time ago and updated the .exe file. I suggest you to download the latest version of .exe. There should...

Hi everybody, I have a question on parallel processing using OpenSeesSP. I created a very big Soil-Foundation-Structure model which has more than 200,000 DOFs. It works fine with 1, 2, and 6 ncpus on my PC, but it stops converging at some time steps when I use different numbers of processors. I am g...

it's u-p element type not U-p-u. You cannot measure the pore fluid displacement

I am running OpenSeesSP on my personal computer in parallel. I will wait for Frank to update it.
Thanks for your help

No I am not compiling the code. Can I use your own compiled version please?

Can you send me your OpenSeesSP.exe file please. So I can try it too.

I have a 3D site response model using SSPbrickUP element type and PressureDependMultiYield Material. I can run my model in OpenSeesSP.exe with PDMY material but not for PDMY02. When I use PDMY02 materials, I get the following error: "FEM_ObjectBrokerAllClasses::getNewNDMaterial - - no NDMateria...

Can I ask you what type of ND materials you are using? It seems that PDMY works fine but PDMY02 has some problem with decomposition.

If I run one more analysis (time domain analysis under gravity loading) after load control static analysis, I get the the same results. My problem is solved. Thanks.

Hi there,
I get the same problem with sending the job when I use different processors in OpenSeesSP. I don't have this problem when I use 2 or 4 processors but I cannot use 3 or 5 or 6 processors. Should I follow some method of discretization to let the software decompose?
Thanks in advance,
