Hi fmk

I want to kindly ask you if I install windows seven through virtual machine and install everything in windows seven, does it work?
Also I want to know that the same tcl that I can use to run normal opensees, can be used to run parallel opensees ?

Many thanks in advance

any hint? any comment? I really need that...

Yes, I am running the 64 version of MPICH2 which is compatible with my OpenSeesMP and the installed tcl file. But, shouldn't I install the new tcl file for parallel processing? :roll: Actually, I am trying to run the OpenSeesMP with the installed tcl file which I was using to run normal OpenSees sin...

Thanks fmk, I run the commands "set pid [get PID]" and "set np [get NP]" as you said and it gave me 0 and 1. So, it seems the problem is my OpenSeesMP and tcl file. By the way, I wanted to download the tcl file(64 bit version) for parallel but I couldn't, there was a problem with...

Hi Frank, Thanks for replying me.

And, ex2.tcl and ex3.tcl are the examples you have mentioned in OpenSee...

Hi everyone, I have installed MPICH2, "mpich2-1.4.1p1-win-x86-64.msi", by following the steps based on the OpenSees instruction, and all checks have been passed. But when I try to run ex3.tcl or ex2.tcl by writing in command line "mpiexec -np 4 OpenSeesMP ex3.tcl" , nothing happe...

I have infilled frame 3d model and, in order to model the infill elements, I used Mosalam2008 which is according to Opensees infill element. Also, I have applied removal infill element command and, it does pushover analysis for 2, 3, 4, 5-storey well. But, when I want to develop it to 6-storey or mo...
