bi-directional push-over using displacement control?

Hi all, I would like to do some bi-directional pushover analyses using displacement control, say, applying prescribed displacements to separate dofs at a node. However, using the Displacement Control integrator, displacements can be applied at only one dof at a node. I am wondering if it is possible...

3d modeling of surface foundation on soil

Hi everybody, I am doing a 3d soil structure interaction analysis so I started from the simplest case- everything is elastic. I used shell elements to simulate a surface foundation and used 'equalDOF' to tie the foundation nodes to the corresponding nodes on the surface of the soil domain (modeled u...

Section Aggregator

Hi all, I have a problem concerning the Section Aggregator Command. I would like to create a section by adding an Elastic-Perfectly Plastic Material (horizontal DOF) to the existing Elastic-No Tension Material (vertical DOF). The idea is to use this section as a node-to-node interface with uncoupled...
