Deformed modal shape

[smailk]

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.

You could record the nodal eigenvectors using a Node recorder.

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.

Dear smailk,

The only way I could think of is to do a recorder Display and then get a print screen of the mode shape.
