Re: Pore pressures of a slope

Thank you all very much! So to make a conclusion, if I need to assign pore pressures, I can just constrain the velocity of the corresponding dof to some values? No need to constrain acceleration, vel and disp at the same time?

Do you mean the displacement of dof 4 is meaningless?

Pore pressures of a slope

Hi all, I have been using Opensees for a while. May I ask some questions I am confused here? 1. Is that ok if I use BrickUP elements and PressureDependMutiYield material to conduct a static analysis of a slope? 2. For all of the samples they keep telling us that the velocity of dof 4 is pore pressur...
