Dear All,

I would be grateful if someone could tell me if he/she built OpenSees 2.4.6 based on last update of the source code; because I am getting trouble in building the last version in win32.

Dear All, I would be grateful if someone could help me in some bugs that arise when I am trying to build a DLL using visual studio the error messages are given below: 1>InitializeBuildStatus: 1> Touching "Debug\CFSSWP.unsuccessfulbuild". 1>ClCompile: 1> win32Functions.cpp 1>d:\pg\my writte...

Dear Dr. Frank,

The bug still apearing, and I don't know how to bypass it, is it possible to send you the FE model (simple one) to see what could you do ? and thank you beforehand.

Regards,

Smail.

Dear All,

I would be grateful if someone could suggest any solution to by pass an error arised suring eigen analysis where the message is as follows:
WARNING BandGenLinLapackSolver::solve() -LAPACK routine returned 7

Kind regards,

Smail.

Dear All,

Where could this error come from !
domain error: argument not in valid rang

I would be grateful if someone could help and thank you beforehand.

Dear All,

Do they elements' masses are taken into account just by defining for example elasticBeamColumn ?

Thank you beforehand.

Smail.

Dear All, I would be grateful if someone could help me with using elasticBeamColumn and truss element together in modeling 2D frame, the is where I run the analysis the following bug arises: WARNING BandGenLinLapackSolver:: solve() -LAPACK routine. WARNING BandGenLinLapackSolver:: solve() -LAPACK ro...

Dear All,

How could we force a zeroLength element to move in just one direction (for example x direction) ?

Kind regards.

Smail.

Dear All, I am trying to run a pushover analysis of a 2D frame using elasticBeamColumn elements, I used equalDOF command to create pinned nodes but unfortunately when runing the analysis an erreur happened which is : warning BandGenLinLapackSolver::solve() - LAPACK routine returned 1 I would be grat...

Dear Mr.Toutant,

I really appreciated your help, thank you. Actually, what I really want is the plot option the both undermed and modal deformed shap of the finite element model.

Smail.

Dear All,

I would be grateful if someone could tell how to plot the deformed modal shape and the underformed shape of the finite element model developped under OpenSees plateform in the same window in order to compare between them and Thank you beforehand.

Kindest regards.

Smail.

Dear all,

I need to model the rigid diaphragm of 2D frame in OpenSees, could anyone suggest something !

Smail.

Thank you so much frank, I really appreciated it.

Smail.

Dear All, I would be more than happy if someone could help me with putting node displacements which are recorded during the analysis into a variable in order to be used at some level of the finite element script to modify the model. This variable, which is a displacement, represents a failure criter...

Yes there a code written in tcl which performs response spectrum curve for 3D structural models
